What Causes Blisters On Finger And Inner Thigh?

Hi about a week ago I was in a car accident and was in the hospital for a day. When I got out I noticed one blister on my finger by my nail and two blisters on my left inner thigh. They were huge so I had to pop them. I didn t clean them so they got infected and were red around( just the two on the leg) now I went tot he Dr yesterday and they checked my blood and nothing showed up. What do you think could have caused these blisters?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history of blisters, my advice is -
1. Sudden onset on blisters in your case points to probable diagnosis of insect bite reaction on skin.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it. Avoid applying an irritant like soap or Dettol on it.
3. Oral NSAID like ibuprofen can be taken for pain and reducing swelling if present.

Lesions will heal completely in about 7-10 days.

Thanks.
