Impetigo..

2017-05-28 18:53:53
My 5 year son has got Impetigo. We took him to his pediac initially who advised us that its boil. Later we took him to his Homeopathy doc who advised Impetigo. Its been almost a week. his left leg is largly affected and yellowish discharge with smelly water coming out of his wounds. Also his eyes have become red for which doc has given disolvable pills to intake. Which would be faster solution for this disease. homeopathy or allopathy. also is der any home remedy to stop the discharge and itching.. How long would it take to completely heal.  Thanks

If homepathic is allowed, it may become a gangrene. Please don't experiment with your kid. He needs antibiotics if it's impetigo. Impetigo can spread. Please visit me for treatment or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment. The treatment is very simple.
