Could Spots On Inside Corner Of Eye And Inside Nose Be Recurred Imptigo In A Child?

I believe my child has impetigo again. About a month ago the same spots were on his nose and on the inside corner. Today I see the same looking ones --one on the inside corner of his eye and the other on the inside of his nose --I've put the muriprocin on it. Any idea why it came back?

Hi....if it's really impetigo which you are dealing with...it can recurr due to fomites or from other kids too, through contact.

But, skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
