Suggest Treatment For Frequent Eruption Of Water Blisters On The Toes

I have water blisters on my toes from being in the sun, watering flowers while on Doxycycline, the antibiotic. I finished the medication 6 days ago. I have to keep draining them with a sterile needle, but they still keep filling up and coming back. How do I get rid of them?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

As per your case history, you are having pompholyx. My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-B cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
