What Do Blisters On The Hands Indicate?

I am a 57 year old male, healthy, but with high blood pressure. Moderate alcohol ( a few beers in the evening). Over the last year my symptoms of concern are clear water blisters on the back of hands ( not palm ) and the top of forearms. Also very easy to break skin in the same areas. Any advise?

Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As you mentioned you have problem of blister over hand that may because of viral infection like herpes or other reasons.

Clinical examination of blister helpful for diagnosis.
Consult a physician for further diagnosis.
As soon as possible treat it....that may be infectious.
Treat underling cause.

I hope this will help you.
