Hello respected,
that can be bullous impetigo, no need to worry much, it's bacterial infection of skin only .
can apply fusidic acid/mupirocin cream two times a day,
and Oral syrup of antibiotic if needed.
rash with vesicles also seen in chickenpox.but in chicken pox usually there is fever, and rash is all over the body ,
You should see a doctor if no response after antibiotic cream application, thank you,
