How Can Blisters On The Legs During Summer Be Treated?
The last 7 to 8 years during the summer months i get these blisters on back of my legs and inside of the legs . They start out stinging then a small blister appears it itches and forms a blister. some will pop and oozes. I use a anti itch cream, ir seems to help a little they usually leave a scar and last anywhere upto 3 weeks. I went to my Doc. said it s chigger bites. Sometimes he will give me a shot of steroid which seems to calm it down some. I try not to itch it. Sometimes a new one forms right over the old one. Any ideas

hiii.welcome to our site.i have gone through your question.my opinion is that you are having furuncle,a bacterial infection.maintain good hygiene in that area.dont squeeze or scratch the lesions.apply a antibiotic plus steroid ointment like fusiderm ointment twice daily in that area.take levocetrizine tablets twice daily for 7 days if you are having itching.take analgesics like ibuprofen twice daily for 7 days if you have pain.kindly review with your dermatologist if you find no improvements in symptoms.thank you.
