Blisters On Chest, Neck And Arm. Post Henna Tattoos?

My son came home with 3 blisters on his chest, one on his neck and one on his arm. The pediatrician wants him to stay home from school tomorrow and give him n update then. Now my daughter says she has a few bu,ps as well. They both claim it was post Henna tattoos. Should I be worried? They are 11 y?o boy and 12 y/o girl.
