What Causes Blisters On Feet When Diagnosed With Mycosis Fungoides?
I was recently diagnosed with Mycosis Fungoides and have been treated with UVB rays. Recently I have been getting small blisters on my feet. The did a blood test to see if it was another disease which I cannot pronounce and the biopsy came out negative . I have used a steroid cream . They go away and come back in a different area. Is this a another phase of mf? Maybe you can give me a different prospective of this disease. My email address is YYYY@YYYY . Thanks for your help.

Hello,
There can be various issues for the blisters on the feet when diagnosed with mycosis fungiodes as:
- Treatment resistant infections
- Undiagnosed infection
- Uncontrolled diabetes
- Low immunity
- Side effect of steroid cream through atrophy of skin cells
- Other auto immune disorders such as Pemphigus vulgaris or Bullous pemphigoid
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
