Hello,

The itchy blisters on scalp, elbows and knee indicate allergic eruptions through some sort of immune mediated antibodies production or else. Primary care with:
- Antiseptic cleaning of the lesion
- Local application of aloe vera cream, calamine lotion on alternate basis
- Anti histamine as diphenhdyramine, cetirizine or else
- Steroid shots or oral betamethasone as per the choice of your doc
- Culture swab of one of the blister content
- Discuss the need of antibiotics, anti-fungal medications with your dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
