Great details and information for health inquirers.

I love this video. So informative. Thank you!! Question and possible topic to cover....My 3 year old is very allergic to sunscreen. She gets swollen and hive like skin. Wearing UV protective clothing is how we combat the problem, but I’d like to know if you have a sunscreen alternative. I’ve tried the mineral free and all the other things it could be free from. Should I take her to her pediatrician for an allergy test? Do they do that for things other than food? Thank you for providing an educational space to discuss all the different things that occur with kids. Makes me feel like a stronger and more confident Mom.

Hi Rachel, yes, I'd take her to see your paediatrician who can refer you to a paediatric dermatologist if needed.

Very informative video! I am currently an adult with impetigo, I seem to have picked it up at the state fair. I have been using antibiotic cream for around three days, I was told I need to continue using it for a full 14 days. Is that needed if the blisters are healed? Am I still contagious?

[@cprkids]

Hi! We would recommend following the instructions you were given by your GP =)

I'm pretty sure I'm an adult with impetigo. It looks the exact same, and I've spread it to my ear ☹️

Can my son socialise with impetigo

[@cprkids]

Hi! The blisters are no longer contagious once they have crusted over, or you’ve been treating with an antibiotic for 24 to 48 hours.
