Treatment Guidelines on Common Primary Cutaneous Bacterial Infections

ImpetIgO

Impetigo contagiosa is a common superficial bacterial infection caused by Streptococcus and Staphylococcus sp. or a combination of both bacteria.

While it is more common in children, it may occur at any age.

Bullous and non-bullous impetigo represent two clinical forms. It presents clinically as thin-roofed bullae or more com-monly ruptured vesicles/bullae which expose a red, moist base covered by honey-colored crusts with a “stuck-on appearance”, usually on the face and other exposed areas.

Prevention• Antibacterial cleansers• Screen and treat family members with impetigo

TreatmentFor limited local infections:• Mupirocin 2% or fusidic acid ointment or cream is to

be applied 2- 3x a day for 7-10 days. Updated! • May soak the lesions TID in warm water or saline

solution to remove the crusts

For widespread infections: Updated! • Recurrent disease maybe secondary to the colo-

nization of Staphylococcus aureus in the nares. Mupirocin cream or ointment maybe applied BID to the anterior nares

• A penicillinase resistant systemic antibiotic such as cloxacillin 250 mg, cefalexin 250 mg 4x a day or sodium fusidate 250-500 mg BID may be prescribed. See table for other drugs.

eCthymA

Ecthyma is a deeper bacterial infection characterized by an ulcerative staphylococcal or streptococcal pyoderma, nearly always of the shins or dorsal feet.

Ecthyma is characterized by a saucer-shaped ulcer with a raw base and elevated edges. Lesions usually heal with scarring.

Treatment• Cleansing with soap and water, followed by application

of mupirocin, bacitracin, or fusidic acid cream or oint-ment, 2-3x a day.

• Cloxacillin or a first-generation cephalosporin must be given systemically

FOllICulItIs

The common folliculitis is a staphylococcal infection involving the superficial portion of the follicular duct and presents with perifollicular red papules or pustules eventually with crust formation. Tenderness may be present.

Distribution is variable; often the scalp, arms, legs, axillae and trunk are involved.

Treatment• Heat, friction and occlusion should be avoided or mini-

mized.• Antibacterial soap and topical antibiotics like mupirocin

or fusidic acid are effective in limited areas of involve-ment.

• Oral antistaphylococcal antibiotics (oxacillin, cloxacillin, cefuroxime, sodium fusidate are indicated for extensive cases.)

FurunCles & CArbunCles

A furuncle (boil) is a walled-off, deep, painful, fluctuant mass enclosing a collection of pus, often evolving from staphylococcal folliculitis.

A carbuncle is an extremely painful, deep, interconnec-ted aggregate of infected follicles (coalescing furuncles).

Treatment • Warm, moist compresses are applied 15 to 30 minutes

several times a day. • Oral anti-staphylococcal antibiotics for at least 7 days

should be given• Drainage is the primary management for fluctuant le-

sions.• Nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus is eradicated

by mupirocin 2% cream or fusidic acid cream applied

to the anterior nares BID for 5 days. For persistent colo-nization, rifampicin 600 mg once a day and cloxacillin 500 mg four times a day, for 7 to 10 days is prescribed.

CellulItIs

Cellulitis is an infection of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue characterized by red, hot, tender and painful plaque with an ill defined border.

In adults and children this is most often caused by Group A ß-hemolytic Streptococcus and Staphylococcus aureus.

Facial, periorbital, head and neck involvement in children less than 2 years old is most commonly caused by H. influenza.

Treatment• Warm compresses and analgesics to relieve pain.• Elevation of an involved extremity hastens recovery.• Empiric treatment with antibiotics aimed at Staphy-

lococcal and Streptococcal organisms is appropriate.• Ampicillin for children because it has coverage for H. influenza.

• Hib immunization in children has dramatically reduced the incidence of cellulitis in children less than 2 years old.

• Hib serves as chemoprophylaxis of household mem-bers in patients less than 4 years old who are un-immunized.

erysIpelAs

Erysipelas is an acute inflammatory form of cellulitis with prominent lymphatic involvement

More superficial involvement with margins that are more clearly demarcated from normal skin.

Prodromal symptoms consist of malaise, chills, fever and occasionally, anorexia and vomiting.

Treatment• Penicillin V orally (20 to 50 mg 4x a day) is the drug of

choice. Erythromycin can also be used.• Azithromycin 500 mg on day 1 and 250 mg on days 2

to 5, or clarithromycin 250 to 500 mg every 12 hours for 7 to 14 days are alternatives for patients who cannot take penicillin.

pArOnyChIA

Paronychia is an inflammatory reaction involving the folds of the skin surrounding the nail.

Paronychia is characterized by acute or chronic purulent, tender, and painful swellings of the tissues around the nail usually of the fingers.

Causative bacteria are usually Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Pseudomonas, Proteus sp or anaerobes.

Treatment• Protection against trauma. Cover with a bandage or

dressing.• Incision and drainage should be done on acutely in-

flamed abscesses.• For acute suppurative paronychia due to S. aureus, a

semisynthetic penicillin or a first-generation cephalos-porin maybe given orally. Sodium fusidate tablet 250-500 mg BID or TID is also effective.

erythrAsmA

Erythrasma is a chronic, bacterial infection caused by Co-rynebacterium minutissimum. It affects the intertriginous areas like the groin, axillae and occasionally the toes.

Present as sharply marginated, brownish-red, scaling patches on affected areas.

Predisposing factors include diabetes, warm, humid climate and prolonged occlusion of the skin.

Treatment• Antibacterial cleanser• Benzoyl peroxide (2.5%) gel daily for 7 days or topical

erythromycin solution BID for 7 days. Topical azoles are also effective.

• Systemic antibiotic therapy using erythromycin or tetracycline 250 mg QID for 7 days is prescribed in resistant cases.

Characteristics of an ideal antibacterial agent for common skin infections:

1. Should have activity against Staph. aureus (including methicillin-resistant strains) and Streptococcus.

2. Low resistance rates3. Low sensitizing potential3. No cross sensitivity with other antibiotics4. Excellent pharmacokinetics

protective device for wound healing

Protect the wound from further damage, such as contact with dirt, soil or insects, by applying protective gauze or dressing. Dressings may also help reduce odor and help absorption of moisture especially in highly exudative le-sions. Wound dressings are also beneficial in improving the appearance of wound site and may even help promote the functional use of the affected part.

As a further precaution, dressings must be changed frequently and disposed immediately.
