thought i was breaking out on my face with pimples. i had changed face creams, and ended up with raised red areas that were very sore. I can't handle having anything ugly on my face so I started trying to pop the sores. They are very painful. I decided that maybe I should just leave them alone, but more appear..Would this cream help?

Impetigo is caused by a staph infection. You will need antibiotics to treat this. Triamcinolone ointment will not work. It may help reduce some of the redness because it is a steroid cream but it will not kill the underlying infection. Call your healthcare provider.

Dont rry popping them. this will just spread the infection! Keep the area clean with soap and water until you can get to your healthcare provider. The blisters will eventually pop on their own and will become honey colored crusts. Your healthcare professional will tell you how to treat them. When I had this type of infection when I was a kid, the Dr gave me a special lotion to wash the area with and had me loosen the crusts with warm water and a clean face cloth then once they were loosened I would scrub them off with the special lotion. I'm not sure if that is how they are treated now but you do need to talk to your healthcare provider. You may even need oral antibiotics.
