avoid contact with family members

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in to Healthcare Magic.
Dispirin rarely causes blisters.
May be you are having headache due to viral exantheme like chicken pox or some other infection or drug reaction to some other drug is perfume or lotion.
It is highly advisable to avoid use of Dispirin for future because there are more safe and effective options.
Also get examined by a local physician for the blisters.
Avoid contact with others, it may be contagious.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.

Brief Answer:
allergic event

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome back.
I think you had redness and popular eruption because blister are watery blend and do not heal o fast.
Viral eruptions do not heal that fast.
It must be an allergic event.
You should avoid Dispirin in future.
There is no need for going to a specialist if the eruptions resolved fully.
I hope the advise will be useful for you.
Take care.
