Are Blisters On The Fingers And Toes A Side Effect Of Doxycycline?
I was on doxycycline for Lyme disease and my feet and hands got sunburned 2 weeks ago. I now have blisters on my toes and starting to get them on my fingers. Is this a reaction to the doxycycline. It just seems so strange that it has taken so long for the blisters to form
Doxycycline may can cause bullous fixed drug eruption in few patients. Please also check other possibilities of this eruption like moisturizer or soaps allergy or auto immune bullous eruption. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
