I've just had an appointment with my doctor, and they mentioned that I have impetigo, but it got triggered by sunburn. I know impetigo is contagious, right? Does this still hold true even when it develops from sunburn? I'm a bit worried about spreading it to others.

I've noticed some lumps in my mons pubis area about a month after I shaved there. They're not very big, just a bit red, and they only hurt when I touch or gently push them. I'm thinking it might be an abscess from shaving. I'm not married, so I'm wondering if there's an antibiotic cream you could recommend or if you have any other suggestions for what might help?
Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle
