What Does A Blister Type Rash On Arms Indicate?
I had a rash on my right arm not far from the elbow , well more like blisters than a rash. The blisters popped and it started to scare over. Now, while the same blisters are healing, a new set of blisters have appeared. can you get herpes on your arms?

Hi, welcome to HCM,
yes you can get herpes zoster any where on body even on arm.
Herpes zoster are grouped, vesicular (fluid filled cavity of less than 5 mm) lesion presents on a dermatome.
Needs antiviral medication to prevent post herpetic neuralgia.
hope this is useful.
thanks
