Is Amy Winehouse really suffering from impetigo? We talked to several board-certified dermatologists for the lowdown.
One doctor said Winehouse might be suffering from MRSA, a dangerous staph bacteria that's resistant to antibiotics.
Another doctor said the problem in figuring it out from the picture is that Amy has so much makeup on, it's hard to see the exact nature of the skin condition.
And still another doc said he didn't think the condition is caused from drug use (not that Amy uses drugs), because the lesions were not oval-shaped, which is a marker. But the plot thickens ... yet another doc said if she picked at the sores, that could change their shape. Dinner, anyone?

It amazes me how so many people allowed to vote can trash a Kid.....ya..I said kid..because of personal probs.

Get a life or maybe someone will open up your closet..you losers
THAT IS THE FACE OF A CORPSE!! are you telling me that someone is alive in there????? This girl needs to be strapped to a bed in a hospital for 6 months to a year!
who ever loves her, her family or friends will try to help her. she needs HELP, look at her. something is very wronge. get help AMY.
It would be too much just to REPORT what the doctors say might be causing the problem without ripping Amy to shreds as she doesn't have enough problems.
The biggest wrecks here are the TMZ staff!
It is outright cruel to post her face in this condition and may the "funny faces" behind it's posting end up with karma. This is a condition not to be taken lightly and I, personally, feel great compassion for her.
I don't know whether to feel bad for her, or say something really nasty!
She needs help PRONTO
Very talented and we need more of her music...she needs to be in a hospital ASAP
Looks like a loosing battle to DRUGS
Pimp Daddy sayz it's time to go to REHAB baby
Amy you should have invested in some ivory soap because this is probably her karma !!
Seriously boys and girls you never really know someone until you see the blood test results.
next exhibit ?
I'll rent the DVD when it's done:
Someone needs to take a pressure washer to her face and hide all her make-up. When that's done, put her in a white long sleeved jacket and let her detox for a month. What a hot mess!
