Red Blister On The Leg Of A 80 Years Old Male, But It Is Not Itchy
I have a large red blister-like sore - not running or pusy, the itch is constant and there appear to be similar sites developing on my other leg and torso , I am male 80 years of age. Right now I am on anti-biotic treatment 3rd of 7, and he has given me a lotion to apply after the anti-biotic treatment. But what do I have?
