Thanks for your query at HCM!
It seems you have some sought of fungal infection (dermatophytic). I suggest you get your fasting and random sugar get tested. You must collect the fluid by pucturing of blister and send for tests like gram staining, microscopy for fungal elements, culture- aerobic/anaerobic bacterial and fungal tests. Follow up with investgations for proper treatment. In meanwhile after sampling you can apply some triple action cream.
Take care!
