Hi fluid filled bump can be resign of scabies.permite cream used for scabies cures only 90 percent of infection hence it should be applied twice with one week apart.use of atarax 25 mg at night.antibiotic twice daily and application of diprovate g ointmemt over the fluid filled blister can cure the condition

Hello,
Thanks for the query.

There is a possibility that you have developed a recurrent infection.

Dont worry it can be treated easily.

Please go for a permethrin application once again.

It should be done for all the members of family.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.

you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.
