Suggest Treatment For Blister Spots On Back, Groin, Legs And Arms

I have a chronic skin disease they diagnosed 4 years ago. They gave me topical steroids but my flare ups are getting worse and my spots are multiplying. I have them on my back, groin, leg, arms. The largest spot is about 6cm in diameter, circular in nature. I have no idea what to do for it anymore and this flare up has made it blister and it is getting infected
