Why did your impetigo infection take so long to heal even with 2 or 3 antibiotics?

Impetigo can take time to heal even with antibiotics if the bacteria are resistant to the prescribed medications, or if the treatment wasn't appropriately targeted for the specific strain causing the infection. Additionally, factors such as poor hygiene, underlying skin conditions, or compromised immune systems can impede healing. It's also possible that the infection was not completely cleared, leading to a recurrence. Proper wound care and adherence to the treatment regimen are essential for effective recovery.
