A 2 year old girl was brought to the clinic for rashes in the cheeks and forehead of 3 days duration, initially like small pinheads,"butlig", then after a day rapidly converted to vesicular rashes, "nagtutubig". It was noted that a playmate suffers from a similar condition.

Mupirocin cream was also prescribed to be applied 3x day . Advised was given regarding improvement of personal hygiene and avoidance of crowded places.

| Impetigo or Mamaso or Talipaso |
Impetigo is the most common skin infection in children and is caused by Streptococcal and Staphylococcal bacteria. Preschool children are most often affected and is highly contagious.The intact skin is an effective barrier that that keeps bacteria from entering and growing in the body, but if there is a break in the skin , like that from scratching, bacteria may then enter and grow there causing inflamation and infection. Break in the skin may come from insect bite, human bites,animal bites and other trauma to the skin. It spreads across body with scratching and found easily in daycares and school. It is advisable not to share towels, clothing and other personal care articles with other members of the family and also encourage thorough washing of hands after touching the lesions.
Predisposing factors and conditions may include hot and humid weather, malnutrition, poor hygiene , over crowded living conditions, minor skin trauma like abrasions and skin conditions like Atopic Dermatitis.
The lesion or sores of impetigo usually heal slowly but seldom leave a scar. The cure rate is very good but the condition always recurs in young children thus emphasis is on hygiene and prevention.

Hello po... ano po ba yung process ng virgin olive oil & turmeric powder?
Nagkaroon po kasi yung pamangkin ko ng Talipaso. Please share it po. Really need it po talaga. Salamat.
Thanks for sharing the info about turmeric and VCO. I tried it on my 2 yr old niece. Ang bilis ng pag galing. isang application lang di na sya nagbabasa.
san po nkakabli ng turmeric powder? what brand sa inyo? at pano po gnawa nyo? mix lang ba? thanks
Ngakaroon ng ganito yung 2 yo baby boy at 1 yo baby girl ko. amoxicillin(anti biotic) at immunosine(for immune system) ung inireseta sa kanila kc nga isang factor talaga yung weak immune system kung bakit sila nahawa.Hindi namin pinaliguan yung dalawa until completely dried na yung mga tumubo sa kanila. mga 2 nights silang hindi nakatulog dahil sa kati at sakit.Hindi namin alam na may natural way to heal talipaso pala. otherwise, nag turmeric at vco treatment sana kami.
i try this modern prucedure..hope gagaling yung anak koh..his 5 years old..
Ganyan din po sa baby ko 11mos. Plng xa now, effective nga po yung luyang dilaw ihahalo sa langis ng niyog at hinaluan ko p ng asin..super effective po xa mbilis matuyo at pagaling na ang mamaso ng baby ko. Mas mainam nga din po kung ililigo sa dgat tuyo agad ang rashes o mamaso, mainam po kc ang tubig alat sa mga rashes tulad ng mamaso..mlayo lng kc kmi sa dagat eh..yung anak kc ng kpitbhay nmin may mamaso din iniligo lng sa dagat..ayun mgaling na sya now..share ko lng din po.^_^
