General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your query.
I believe you may have an Infection.
Please see your doctor immediately for prompt care and treatment.
Keep area clean and do not puncture the blisters.

If there is swelling, avoid using the hand and keep it elevated on a pillow as you sleep. Avoid tight fitting clothes.
Hope this helps. I urge you to seek medical attention right away.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
I find this answer helpful
