I soaked my impitigo in a sailenesolution and removed the scab and proceeded to put my prescribed ointment, bit now the exposed pink area is turning brown. Does this mean its healing? Or do I have to keep soaking the wound in sailene solution before I apply my ointment?
Thanks for posting you query to Chat Doctor.impetigo are skin infection usually caused by Staphylococcus like bacteria. If you are having open wound you need to take proper care of it as there are higher chances of getting reinfection in such cases .so cleaning with antiseptic and Chat Doctor. Brown color are suggestive of step towards healing, but you should give care to wound till healing. Hope you would be satisfied with my answer.  Feel free to communicate if any query.regards,
