Why Did My Daughter Develop Blister Like Rash On Her Hands?
My daughter is receiving radiation treatment for cancer in the back of her eye. The evening after leaving hospital she developed a raised blister like rash on top of hands, elbows and face. The rash then turned red and is spreading outward from the site areas. What do you think? We have tried Reactin to no avail and did inquire of her oncologist who has no idea.
Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you should first consult dermatologist and get done systematic examination of skin lesions. The main causes for these are 1. Radiotherapy associated skin damage 2. Viral infection of skin. 3. Insect bite in skin. 4. Malignant spread of tumour in skin (rare possibility) etc. So better to get done clinical examination by dermatologist and if needed biopsy from the lesion is advised to confirm the diagnosis.
