Suggest Treatment For Blisters On Toes
On 4 occasions now the top of my toes have broken into very fast forming blisters that require oral antibiotics and antibiotic cream to stop. My doctor and I thought it could possibly be a latex allergy but I recently went for allergy tests and I tested negative for latex. I am having another occurence of this and 4 doctors have seen my feet and no one has any idea what it could be including the allergist. I have pictures if it is possible to send them.

Hello,
Seems like eczematous dermatitis. I suggest you to use a potent steroid and antibiotic combination cream. On addition I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g. cetirizine for symptomatic relief from itching. A short course of oral antibiotics e.g. either amoxicillin or cephalexin is also advisable...
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
