What Dies A Small Blister On Toe Indicate?

Suspecting bacterial infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your query and the attached photos.
I am suspecting bacterial infection in your daughter's case.
The picture also looks like impetigo which presents with blisters which are fluid filled.
The blister could also be caused due to a shoe bite where tight shoes or sandals may rub on soft skin and cause fluid filled blisters.
I suggest you get a prescription for antibiotics like amoxycillin which can be given two times daily for 5 days and apply a local antiseptic cream over the blister.
The fluid should dry up or blister should break to disperse the fluid and the wound should heal within 2-3 days.
Avoid shoes which are tight and causing discomfort to your child.
Continue tylenol and can be given every 8 hours.
Hydrocortisone not required.
I hope I have cleared your doubts.
Please get back if any more clarifications.
Thanks.


Easily available antibiotic
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Amoxicillin is an easily available antibiotic but you will need a prescription from a doctor to get it.
If you are traveling, then the ship doctor should have some in his pharmacy stock.
Please keep the foot area clean and dry and application of a local antiseptic is a must.
I hope I have helped you with this answer.
Please let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing your daughter a speedy recovery,
Thanks.
