Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Blister what you have on your gluteal region can be overcome by taking the following measures.
1. Clean the area with antiseptic solution like Povidine-iodine twice daily.
2. Use Neomycin cream for topical application following cleaning.
3. Avoid putting direct pressure on the leasion while sitting or sleeping.
4. Wear loose fitting undergarments until the lesion heals completely.
Kindly keep the area under good hygiene and see to it that it doesn't get infected.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
