Suggest Treatment For Several Itchy Blisters On Arms
I have several small itchy pustules/blisters, (looks like clear liquid inside) similar in appearance to the blister after a burn, on my arms. They did not appear all at once. Began on my right arm, only two, close together. Now on both arms about a total of 9 on left arm, and 4 on right arm. The ones on the right arm, which appeared first about 3-4 days ago are no longer raised, but still itchy. Several on left arm are raised and some are no longer raised.

The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is pemphigus vulgaris which is am autoimmune disease. Topical steroid cream like mometasone can be applied over the affected area. Oral antihistamines like fexofenadine may also be used. Consult your dermatologist at the earliest opportunity to confirm the diagnosis of the condition.Regards
