Detailed Answer:
Hello, thanks for follow up .
I have reviewed images uploaded by you.
Lesions are now showing post inflammatory changes.This will recover with time and you need not to worry much about it.
However for faster recovery you may use mild steroid lotion like dosetil.You need to apply this lotion twice daily.Avoid soap and hot water over affected area till recovery.
Small blister probably suggest site of insect bite and continue applying fucibet over it for some more time.
