This condition primarily affects children residing in hot and humid climates. Impetigo can manifest as either bullous or nonbullous variants. Although it commonly afflicts the facial region, it can emerge on any body area with abrasions, lacerations, insect bites, or other forms of trauma. Among pediatric skin issues, impetigo contributes to roughly 10% of cases. The incidence is equitable between genders across all age groups, but it predominantly affects males in adults. While most prevalent among 2 to 5-year-old children, impetigo can develop at any age, with the highest occurrence during the summer and fall. Bul...
