Suggest Treatment For Blisters On Calf Area And Soreness In Legs

My mother has edema in her legs. She started out with a sore on her right leg that has healed now, however the rest of her calf has blistered and looks like a very bad burn. The blisters break continually and drain (I m guessing from the edema). I need to know the best way to treat this.

Hello
Thanks for posting
It's very important to find out the cause of her suffering,that will decide the treatment .Does she has diabetes or any other chronic disease ?
Color doppler study of the leg is must to rule out blood clot.
Hope this helps.
Take care
