Brief Answer:
sounds like an infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi ,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your query.
I think I would be able to help you.
The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of an infection that has been affecting the legs. The infection may have been the cause of the blisters that have formed.
I think I would suggest that you get a test of the sugars and a blood culture to be sure.
Antibiotics may be needed as per the culture report.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information helps you. Please feel free to contact us for more information. Best of luck. Dr Mittal.
