Yup, itu istilah medis dari penyakit infeksi kulit yg disebabkan bakteri ini, yang skr sedang diderita Devan, anyway, karena sudah cari info sebanyak2nya, Alhamdulillah ga panik.
Mulanya sabtu lalu, ada lentingan kecil merah dan berair di lengan kanan Devan, sebesar kacang ijo, trs minggu siangnya agak membesar tp msh menggembung, hari senin siang pecah dan penampakannya seperti luka kena sundutan rokok, Bunda langsung cari tau di primbon (sebutan untuk buku Smart Parents nya Dr Wati, hehe), disitu ada yg menerangkan ttg Impetigo ini, yang orang awam bilang "cacar api", karena lukanya seperti sundutan rokok itu td. Trus biar lebih yakin search jg di Mayoclinic, berikut artikel yang Bunda kutip dr Mayoclinic :
"Impetigo (im-puh-TIE-go) is a highly contagious skin infection that mainly affects infants and children. Impetigo usually appears as red sores on the face, especially around a child's nose and mouth. Although it commonly occurs when bacteria enter the skin through cuts or insect bites, it can also develop in skin that's perfectly healthy.
Impetigo is seldom serious, and usually clears on its own in two to three weeks. But because impetigo can sometimes lead to complications, your child's doctor may choose to treat impetigo with an antibiotic ointment or oral antibiotics. Your child can usually return to school or a child care setting as soon as he or she isn't contagious — often within 24 hours of starting antibiotic therapy. "
Nah, akhirnya semalam Bunda bw Devan ke spesialis kulit di RS Mitra Keluarga Bekasi, krn lukanya semakin terlihat membesar. Mnrt Dokter, benar Devan terkena Impetigo, so dia meresepkan salep antibiotic saja, Bactroban Mupirocin, yang sblm ditebus, bunda dah sempet cek dulu infonya di medicastore, apakah itu aman buat Devan dan emang sesuai untuk penyakit trsbut. Karena infonya sdh sesuai, so Bunda tebus deh tuh resep dan sdh mulai pengobatan sejak semalam. Alhamdulillah td pagi terlihat mengering 
Dokter jg menyarankan mandi dengan larutan antiseptik, persis sama sperti yg disarankan seorang sahabat, thanks infonya ya Mbak Q...Bunda sudah beli jg dettolnya semalam dan sdh dipakai mandi pagi ini sm Devan.
Ini ada petikan artikel dr Mayoclinic jg untuk pengobatan / treatment nya:
"Impetigo treatment can speed healing of the sores, improve the skin's appearance and limit the spread of the infection. How impetigo is treated depends on several factors, including the type of impetigo and the severity of the infection. Treatments include:
- Hygienic measures. Sometimes your doctor may choose to treat minor cases of impetigo with only hygienic measures. Keeping the skin clean can help mild infections heal on their own.
- Topical antibiotics. Your doctor may prescribe a prescription antibiotic that you apply to the affected areas (topical antibiotic), such as mupirocin ointment (Bactroban). Before applying the antibiotic, you need to gently remove any scabs so that the antibiotic can penetrate the sore.
- Oral antibiotics. Antibiotics you take by mouth (oral antibiotics) may be prescribed for widespread impetigo, ecthyma and severe cases of impetigo contagiosa. The specific antibiotic depends on the severity of the infection and any known allergies or medical conditions. Be sure to finish the entire course of medication even if the sores are healed. This helps prevent the infection from recurring and makes antibiotic resistance less likely.
Selain itu jg Devan demam karena batpil jg, semalam mencapai 38.5, tetapi Bunda hanya kompres air hangat aja, dan minum yang banyak, trs terapi uap ketika Devan tidur.
Baru saja ditelp ke rumah demamnya sudah turun di 37, cm sumeng aja, dan batuknya jg sdh membaik, pileknya sdh tdk separah kemarin2, Alhamdulillah semoga semuanya membaik ya Nak, amiinnnn
