What Could Cause Blisters On Nail Bed After Removal Of Big Toenail?

I had my big toe nail taken out last week & just two days ago I saw the nurse, everything was looking good. I got into the shower, cleaned it & just 2 hours later I took the gauze off & I have blisters on the nail bed. I had my other one taken off 2 years ago & this did not happen?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
You could be allergic to a medicine which was used for dressing two days ago. The blister could be an allergic contact dermatitis blister or irritant contact dermatitis blister. It is better that you consult your doctor.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
