Just wanted to Thank everyone for their replies. My friend is a little stressed with her daughters condition at the moment. I have had a look at some of the photos on google of that Impetigo but it doesn't really look like that. Or maybe it hasn't got that bad. But I was thinking if its contagious her other kids should have got it by now as she has had it for a couple of weeks. Will keep researching and let you know. Might try and get a piccy too and post it on here in the next couple of days so you can all get a better idea of what its like. Thanks so much for all your answers. Might tell my friend to take her daughter to a skin specialist or an allergist too. Will be back later to check again. CHEERS!!!
