Hi i think u are suffering from pemphigus vulgaris or allergic or irritant contact dermatitis.as there is no history if allergens or irritants hence it can be pemphigus which is autoimmune bullous disorder.it can be cured by atarax 25 mg at night and a broad spectrum antibiotic and use of oral steriods like wysolone 60 mg tapered to 10mg within 20 days.application of gentian violet over unruptured blisters and lobate gn over the ruptured blisters can cure it
