Impetigo is a highly contagious skin infection that primarily affects young children but can occur in people of any age. It is characterized by red sores or blisters that can burst and ooze, forming a honey-colored crust. The infection is usually caused by bacteria, most commonly Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes, and can be treated effectively with antibiotics. Good hygiene and prompt treatment are essential to prevent its spread.
