Q: Impetago Staph Infection
asked by: hmp on August 3rd, 2006
New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
My stepdaughter (7 yrs) and my son (2 yrs) were both diagnosed with impetago staph yesterday. They have scabby soars on their skin that are to be treated with triple antibiotic ointment, no oral antibiotic needned, as their infections were not so wide spread. My questionis; I am 37 weeks pregnant with my second son, should I be concerned about contracting it, or it affecting my baby?
