What Causes Sore Blisters On The Finger And Sore Eyes?
I have a bite on my LHS finger, it is raised, red, sore to touch and there seems to be a rash like little blisters surrounding the area which appears to be spreading. I have used ice to reduce swelling and bite creams but its not helping. At the same time I had what I thought to be the start of conjunctivitis which I have antibiotic eyedrops for but this is also not helping and my eyelid is very puffy and sore. Are these 2 related?

Hello
Sore fingers and sore eyes are not related to each other but it can be transfer of infection from fingers to eyes.
The puffiness and sore eyelids indicate infection of the eyelids like hordeolum.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs.
Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.
Thank you
