Hello,
A rash with blisters after a major trauma such as surgery can be due to a shingles infection. It is important that you see your doctor and possibly take oral antiviral drugs to help the infection heal faster and prevent pains in the area.
I hope I have answered your query and have been helpful to you.
I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
