Impetigo, also known as infantigo or school sores, primarily affects children ages two through five. Because this bacterial skin infection is highly contagious, it can quickly spread through school classrooms, carpools, and day care centers. The tell-tale signs of this skin infection are red sores around the mouth, lips, and nose, which eventually form a distinctive yellow-brown crust.

Like all rashes, infantigo can be distressing to parents. Fortunately, this skin condition is treatable. Visit our pediatric walk-in clinic or make an appointment online if you believe someone in your family is suffering from infantigo.

While flu and cold season usually strikes in fall and winter, coughs and colds circulate all year long. While most coughs and colds will clear up on their own without medical treatment, these illnesses do sometimes require medical attention. If a cough or cold is negatively affecting your life, has not responded to over-the-counter treatment, or is making it difficult to go to work or school, a quick visit to urgent care may be the solution.

At any age, ear infections are a pain. And while almost every child will suffer from an ear infection at some point, some are susceptible to these painful infections their entire lives.

Symptoms of serious ear infections, or swimmer’s ear, include severe pain, fever, hearing loss, and throbbing. Do not hesitate to contact our walk-in urgent care clinic for assistance at the first sign of ear infections.
