Impetigo- small red spots , progress to tiny blisters that eventually rupture,producing oozing,sticky,honeycolored crust. This rash spreads quickly with scratching.
Caused by Streptococcal bacteria(maybe strep throat)** my daughter had it
of greatest concern is a rare reaction to "strep" is kidney problem know as glomeruonephritis will cause the urine to turn a dark brown color and is often accompanied by headache and elevated blood pressure. Although this conditon has a formidable name it is short-lived and heals completely in most people.
Antibiotics won't prevent "G" but may help prevent the impetigo from spreading to other people. Good Luck!!

Do you mean impetigo? If so, it is a highly contagious skin infection caused by the "strep" or "staph" bacteria. Here is more info.
