Impetigo
☆ Pada hasil Stiftung Warentest tahun 2022 dari Jerman, kepuasan konsumen terhadap ModelDerm hanya sedikit lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan konsultasi telemedis berbayar.
Kasus impetigo di dagu. Impetigo harus dicurigai jika anak kecil tidak memiliki riwayat cedera, namun lesi seperti luka menyebar.
Berbeda dengan dermatitis atopik, impetigo memerlukan pengobatan antibiotik dan dapat memburuk dengan penggunaan steroid.

ReferencesImpetigo, infeksi bakteri kulit yang paling umum terjadi pada anak usia dua hingga lima tahun, terbagi dalam dua tipe utama: nonbulosa (70 % kasus) dan bulosa (30 % kasus). Impetigo nonbulosa biasanya disebabkan oleh Staphylococcus aureus atau Streptococcus pyogenes. Penyakit ini dikenali dari kerak berwarna madu di wajah dan anggota badan serta biasanya menyerang kulit yang mengalami gigitan serangga, eksim, atau lesi herpes. Impetigo bulosa, yang hanya disebabkan oleh S. aureus, menghasilkan bula besar dan lembek serta sering menyerang area kulit yang bergesekan. Kedua jenis ini biasanya sembuh dalam dua hingga tiga minggu tanpa meninggalkan jaringan parut, dan komplikasi jarang terjadi, dengan glomerulonefritis pascastreptokokus sebagai komplikasi paling serius. Perawatan meliputi antibiotik topikal (mupirocin, retapamulin, dan fusidic acid). Antibiotik oral mungkin diperlukan untuk impetigo dengan bula besar atau bila pengobatan topikal tidak memungkinkan. Meskipun beberapa antibiotik oral (amoxicillin/clavulanate, dicloxacillin, cephalexin, clindamycin, doxycycline, minocycline, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, dan macrolides) merupakan pilihan, penicillin tidak efektif. Disinfektan topikal tidak sebaik antibiotik dan sebaiknya dihindari. Fusidic acid, mupirocin, dan retapamulin efektif melawan infeksi S. aureus dan Streptococcus yang sensitif terhadap methicillin. Clindamycin berguna bila dicurigai infeksi methicillin‑resistant S. aureus. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole efektif melawan S. aureus yang resisten terhadap methicillin, namun tidak cukup untuk infeksi Streptococcus.
Impetigo, the most common bacterial skin infection in children aged two to five, comes in two main types: nonbullous (70% of cases) and bullous (30% of cases). Nonbullous impetigo is typically caused by Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes. It's recognized by honey-colored crusts on the face and limbs and mainly targets the skin or can infect insect bites, eczema, or herpetic lesions. Bullous impetigo, caused solely by S. aureus, leads to large, flaccid bullae and often affects areas where skin rubs together. Both types usually clear up within two to three weeks without scarring, and complications are rare, with poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis being the most severe. Treatment involves topical antibiotics (mupirocin, retapamulin, fusidic acid). Oral antibiotics might be necessary for impetigo with large bullae or when topical treatment isn't feasible. While several oral antibiotics (amoxicillin/clavulanate, dicloxacillin, cephalexin, clindamycin, doxycycline, minocycline, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, macrolides) are options, penicillin isn't effective. Topical disinfectants aren't as good as antibiotics and should be avoided. Fusidic acid, mupirocin, retapamulin are effective against methicillin-susceptible S. aureus and streptococcal infections. Clindamycin is useful for suspected methicillin-resistant S. aureus infections. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole works against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, but isn't enough for streptococcal infection.

Impetigo adalah infeksi kulit yang umum disebabkan oleh bakteri tertentu dan mudah menyebar melalui kontak. Biasanya muncul sebagai bercak merah yang ditutupi kerak kekuningan serta dapat menyebabkan gatal atau nyeri. Infeksi ini paling sering terjadi pada anak‑anak yang tinggal di daerah hangat dan lembab. Lesinya dapat berupa lepuh atau tanpa lepuh. Meskipun sering menyerang wajah, penyakit ini dapat muncul di area kulit mana saja yang mengalami kerusakan. Diagnosis terutama didasarkan pada gejala dan penampilan lesi. Perawatan biasanya meliputi antibiotik, baik topikal maupun oral, serta penanganan gejala.
Impetigo is a common infection of the superficial layers of the epidermis that is highly contagious and most commonly caused by gram-positive bacteria. It most commonly presents as erythematous plaques with a yellow crust and may be itchy or painful. The lesions are highly contagious and spread easily. Impetigo is a disease of children who reside in hot humid climates. The infection may be bullous or nonbullous. The infection typically affects the face but can also occur in any other part of the body that has an abrasion, laceration, insect bite or other trauma. Diagnosis is typically based on the symptoms and clinical manifestations alone. Treatment involves topical and oral antibiotics and symptomatic care.

Impetigo biasanya disebabkan oleh Staphylococcus aureus atau Streptococcus pyogenes. Melalui kontak, penyakit ini dapat menyebar ke orang di sekitar atau antar manusia. Pada anak‑anak, impetigo mudah menular ke saudara kandung.
Perawatan biasanya meliputi krim antibiotik seperti mupirocin atau fusidic acid. Antibiotik oral, seperti cephalexin, dapat diberikan bila area yang terkena luas.
Impetigo mempengaruhi sekitar 140 juta orang (2 % dari populasi dunia) pada tahun 2010. Penyakit ini dapat terjadi pada semua usia, namun paling sering pada anak kecil. Komplikasi yang mungkin terjadi meliputi selulitis atau poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis.
○ Pengobatan – Obat OTC
* Karena impetigo adalah penyakit menular, salep steroid sebaiknya tidak digunakan. Jika Anda kesulitan membedakan lesi impetigo dengan eksim, gunakan antihistamin OTC tanpa menambahkan salep steroid.
#OTC antihistamine
* Silakan oleskan salep antibiotik OTC pada lesi.
#Bacitracin
#Polysporin
