What are the typical symptoms of bullous impetigo?

1. Bullous Impetigo mostly occurs within 3 months after birth. It is highly contagious and easily prevalent among newborns. The disease progresses rapidly, with pus spreading swiftly and affecting the entire body. It is often accompanied by a high fever above 39°C, depression, vomiting, and diarrhea in children. If patients with Bullous Impetigo are not treated promptly, they may be endangered by sepsis or toxicemia. The rash appears as scattered vesicles with a diameter of 1-10mm or larger, with thin walls and inconspicuous surrounding red halos. After rupturing, they form large erosions, which dry up and form varnish-like scars that are difficult to peel off. Sometimes, large vesicles heal spontaneously in the center. The edges of the vesicles spread into rings or multiple vesicles interconnect to form a gyriform pattern. It usually occurs on the face, trunk, and limbs, and also on the palms and soles.

2. Bullous Impetigo is highly contagious. If adults contract the disease, they must be isolated from newborns. If Bullous Impetigo is found in a hospital nursery, sick infants should be isolated as soon as possible, their diapers should be disinfected, and the entire nursery should be sanitized. Bullous Impetigo can be cured with systematic treatment.
