Hello,
Welcome to HCM.
I am Dr Rakesh Sharma answering your query.
I can understand your concern.
This may be collection of fluids in different parts of body.
This happens when kidneys do not work sufficiently.
The blister may be a bruise, may or may not be infected, due to high blood sugar.
To suggest you treatment I have to know status of your kidneys.
Please see your doctor.
Hope this suggestion helps.
Good luck.
