my wife has over past 8-9 months developed terrible looking painful sores on both her legs which are spreading to arms fingers etc. they start as small red spot which develops a white puss looking blister. these are about size of pencil eraser to start. the blister bursts and they enlarge to red VERY PAINFUL areas as big as .50 cent pc. they don t go away. i should note that she recently, in past 3 months recovered from shingles.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be the recurrent bacterial infection, bacterial infection, causing the cellulitis probably with a undiagnised bacteria.
She may need to have a culture and sensitivity of the discharge from the lesions and treatment according to the result.Diabetis is to be excluded, to have a success full treatment.
So i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
