I have had that Gina but think its more likely to be blocked lymph
glands than impetigo. One side of my face went all hard and swelled
so that I looked like the poor elephant man, and the inside of my
cheek had a big soft swelling in it. I drank EIS every ten minutes or
so then twenty minutes then half an hour, and within two hours the
swelling had gone right down and it was completely gone in four. all
that was left was a slight tender feeling along my jaw line, which
went by morning. dee

Yesterday, all of the glands on that side of my face under my jaw
became hard as rocks and quite painful. I was having no other
symptoms. Good thing I was going to the doctor anyway today! Doc
(acutally PA) said that it was impetigo. Great. Wonderful.

Anyone know if CS can fix impetigo? And how much should I take?
I’ve been taking about a cup a day for a couple of days – maybe
increase it? Also been spraying it on and soaking the bandaid I’ve
been putting over it with CS. Anything else? He gave me a topical
and oral antibiotic. Not crazy about abx.
I’d appreciate any pointers.
