hi. I have read your question and understand your concern.

red itchy rash with blisters on it can be due to beetle dermatitis. it's an allergic reaction to insects. it usually lasts for 1-2 weeks.

if such a patient visits my clinic, I would advice flutivate ointment twice daily for a week and tab cetrizine once daily.

I suggest you see your dermatologist and get a prescription.

hope this helps. for any further questions please get back to us. thanks.
