While acne can be cured with salicic acid and acne medications, impetigo is an infection and has to be cured with antibiotics and special creams. It does sorta start out like a little pimple, but it spreads flat and the inside is usually pus filled while the outside forms a crusty ring. If you dont have insurance you should go to the ER and have them bill you, you need to have it checked out. Impetigo is a super infection that can be caused from acne or a burn or even a pet scratch.
