What Causes Blood Blisters On The Arm While On Treatment For COPD?
hi, I have a type of COPD THAT I cannot spell. The bronchial tube is curvy and mucus gets caught in the curve parts of the tube. I am using 3% saline solution in a compressor nebulizer and I am getting blood spots under my skin on one arm and my hair is falling out. Could that be the cause.

Hello,
Blood blisters on arm sound to be a side effect of some drugs used for COPD as an antibiotic, steroid or so forth.
Kindly provide me drug list of current use and a photo picture of the blister if possible in follow up session for better evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
