Quick, Local Care for Skin Infections

Got a rash that’s spreading or weeping?
It could be impetigo — a highly contagious skin infection that needs prompt treatment.

At McKay Pharmacy, we offer a walk-in service to assess and treat impetigo without needing to see your GP. Our trained pharmacists can diagnose typical symptoms and provide effective treatment on the spot, helping you feel better — and prevent it spreading to others.

Common Signs of Impetigo:

• Red sores or blisters

• Honey-coloured crusts

• Itchy, weeping patches (especially around the nose or mouth)

• Fast-spreading rash on face, arms or legs

How We Can Help

• Assessment and diagnosis in a private consultation room

• Prescription treatment if suitable (usually a topical antibiotic cream)

• Advice on managing symptoms and preventing spread
