Brief Answer: It can be allergic reaction Detailed Answer: Hello, you have not mentioned since when you are having these blisters. It can be either a viral infection in skin like herpes or it can be a allergic reaction. I would recommend following things. 1. Avoid very tight clothing. 2. Do not rupture those blisters. 3. Start antibiotics like augmentin for prevention of infection. 4. Take antiallergic like atarax. 5. If blisters increases in size, then I would recommend you to show to a dermatologist. Let me know if you want to know any thing else. Thanks and take care.
