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
if your blisters are getting infected, then antibiotics will be prescribed to treat infected blisters. If blister is large enough, then a physician may decompress this blister under sterile conditions. if your blisters are due to herpes, chicken pox or impetigo, then we suppose to treat underlying cause first and then further follow up accordingly with dermatologist.if you are feeling pain and blisters are painful, then you may take ibuprofen or acetaminophen tablets,
