[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 165443, member: 3419"] I had impetigo in HS. On my face. How humiliating. I have to admit I liked the sunlamp though. It spreads ... and you're only seeing one sore. It's hard to diagnosis from your description, but my bet is that's not what you're seeing. My easy child had a MRSA infection last yr. After we discovered what it was, and we stripped her bed and washed everything, she just wore a huge bandage on her leg and wore long pants all the time. It's when you don't know you've got it that it's most contagious because you're touching everything. So once it's covered -- in your case, a Bandaid sounds fine -- it shouldn't spread. Whatever it is. I'd make an appointment. for Mon. Good luck. :) [/QUOTE]
