INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In communicating with a condescending person, try not to lose your temper, since this can make the situation worse. Before replying to the person, pause for a moment and take a deep breath. Tell yourself something like "I'm trying to point out a problem, but I'm going to stay calm and be civil." If someone says something to you that is condescending, even in an offhand kind of way, don't be afraid to stand up for yourself. Let the person know that you feel talked down to, and that the condescension was uncalled for. Being honest is crucial if you want to deal with the situation. Otherwise, the person may not even realize that he or she is being condescending. Condescension is often primarily about one's tone of voice. In other words, it's not always what a person says, but how it is said that matters. Be careful not to reply to a condescending person with more condescension. This means avoiding sarcasm, muttering things under your breath, raising your voice, etc. To deal with difficult people, you have to choose your words very carefully. Avoid saying things that are defensive, since that can validate the condescending person and ruin the chances of resolving the situation. Luckily, you can usually turn defensive statements into more constructive ones. For instance: Suppose someone says something condescending to you, such as "Well, if I were you, I'd just settle on a career and move on with my life." You might be tempted to respond with something like "You're wrong! And stay out of my life." Instead, try saying something more productive, like "I understand you see it that way. Let me explain why it's more complicated than that" If you are dealing with a person who has a consistent habit of saying condescending things to you, stop and consider your relationship with that person in general. Try to determine why it is that you find the remarks condescending, based on the kind of relationship you have. With this knowledge, you will be able to communicate more effectively. For instance, if you have a relationship where you feel like you owe a debt to the other person, the pressure of the debt may cause the feelings of condescension. Settle the debt, or be open with the other person about how you feel. Sometimes, people will use condescension to manipulate others into doing something for them. If a friend or partner says belittling things to you, for instance, he or she might actually fear losing you. The condescending comments would be meant to make you feel inferior and therefore dependent on that person. If you recognize this kind of behavior, communicate calmly and openly communicate with your friend/partner about it. Sometimes, the quickest and easiest way to deal with a condescending person is just to move on. If you can stand the condescending comments long enough to get away from that person, just grin and bear it and avoid that person in the future. If someone's condescending comments are causing serious damage to a relationship that you value, don't be afraid to ask for help. Marriage and family advisors, for instance, are trained in helping to mediate between people who are experiencing relationship problems.

SUMMARY: Keep calm. Be honest. Watch your tone of voice. Practice non-defensive communication. Determine what kind of relationship you have with the person. Recognize emotional blackmail. Nod and smile, when all else fails. Seek professional help, if necessary.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Non-bullous impetigo is the most common type of the disorder, and it manifests with tiny blisters that become red sores on the skin. These sores are filled with a yellow or honey-colored fluid. After a few days, these sores rupture and ooze pus for several days. After a few days, the blisters will turn into into brownish crusted areas. The sores are most commonly found around the mouth or nose, but they may also occur on other areas of the body such as the arms and hands. Bullous impetigo is a less common form of impetigo, usually caused by the bacteria S. aureus. It creates larger blisters that are less likely to burst. The blisters in bullous impetigo may be found on the chest, abdomen, and diaper area of young children and babies. A third, more severe type of impetigo is ecthyma, which is often caused by Streptococcus bacteria. It may also be caused by Staphylococcus or "staph" bacteria. It often begins on the legs. Ecthyma is sometimes called "deep impetigo" because its symptoms are similar to other types of impetigo, but they occur deeper into the skin. Look for small, red-bordered blisters. These blisters are often filled with pus and may look like they're very deep in the skin. After the blisters burst, you will see ulcers with thick, brownish-black crusts. This type of impetigo is much more painful. The ulcers from ecthyma will look "punched out" (well defined) around the borders, and the surrounding skin is often red and calloused. Unlike blisters, these ulcers will not heal or go away on their own. If you think you or your child has impetigo, the best course of action is to visit the doctor. The doctor can help ascertain that the rash on you or your child is, in fact, impetigo, as well as prescribe you the best medication. The rash is extremely contagious, so try to avoid touching the rash if possible. Wash your hands with antibacterial soap if you do touch the rash. This rash is often caused by variations of the staphylococcus bacteria (staph), which is why it is so contagious. However, it can also develop from the streptococcal (strep) bacteria, as well, which is also contagious.
Summary:
Look for red sores. Look on the body for larger blisters. Check the leg area. Visit the doctor. Avoid touching it.
