Brief Answer:
Please send a photo

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Can you attach a photo of the rash so that I am better able to help?

Fluid blisters on feet could be caused by bad, ill-fitting shoes. Also other causes can be there. I dont think candid will help. Will need to avoid the cause.

Brief Answer:
Seems staph or strep skin infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

This seems to be bullous impetigo or a similar problem, probably caused by staphylococcus or streptococcus. It could also be allergic dermatitis.
Diagnosis can be confirmed by examining a swab from lesions by microbiology lab and looking for bacteria.
You can wash it daily with soap and water. You can apply the hand sanitizer on it. You can also apply mupirocin ointment on it 3 times a day for 7 to 10 days. If it doesnot get better than an antibiotic like cephalexin can be taken after confirming the diagnosis.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Bacterial wound culture and sensitivity test

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

You can ask your local laboratory for bacterial wound/pus culture and sensitivity test. It is offered by many laboratories including lalpath lab.

If that doesnot become possible, then a surgeon will be able to help you with testing.
