14 year old got Impetigo after 2 months of going to school wearing a mask. The rash was on her face, all near the mask areas. She has also had a lot of bloody noises. 14 year old – Female Age14LocationSaskatoon
Wearing the mask only a few hours per day for 3 days a week, my 3yo suffering eczema above mouth and lickers dermatitis below mouth.
