I'm going to tell you from experience you probably wont touch the mat for more then 72 hrs even with the medication. if you come back to soon your whole team will get it __________________ wrestle the match like its your last! |

With 3 wrestlers in the house here's how we speed things up. Any time my wife takes one of the kids to the doctor, even if it not for impetigo, she asks for a prescription for the cream. The doc knows they wrestle and gives it to her. We always have a few tubes around. As soon as a ring appears the medicine goes on. There is no lag time that way and there back on the mat in no time. |

Have you seen a doctor? Impetigo is a form of staph infection and creams won't do the trick. Stony Brook University Hospital has a department that deals with childhood infectious diseases. If you're near there it may be worth having them give you an antibiotic appropriate for what you have. |

Definitely see a doctor as Howard advises. A very warm epsom salt bath twice a day for around 30 minutes helps. I've seen it accelerate healing. |
