A Case Report of Impetigo

농가진의 치험 1례 보고

Impetigo is a superficialis and purulent dermal infection spread by contact. It is a common disease among children in summer. A nine-month-old male infant visited our clinic because of vesicles and pustulae around his eyes, lips and chest. We diagnosed impetigo and treated him with herbal medication Sunbanghwalmyung-eum and aromatherapy using tea-tree. He recovered by way of treatment for a period of one week and he is in favorable condition now.
