Do You Get Blisters Full Of Fluid?

I have some right where my arm bends so always getting squeezed. I am afraid to open them. A sign of shingles?

I've had them on my arms and legs. I used a 50/50 spray bottle of bleach/water, sprayed it on while in shower, then wash normally. It helped to dry them out, then to get that tough old outer layer of skin off, so the new gets out. That has to suck trying to put shoes of any kind on. 🫂

Maybe U should see your dermatologist again, because it sounds tricky to put the right diagnosis on your symptoms.

I get blisters on my hands especially. I have allergies so I am never sure if it's an allergy or just general PN

Hello
Are the blisters itchy? Very sore/ stinging ? Spreading anywhere else?
A doctor would have 2 diagnose it 2 B sure
My dad had shingles many years ago ( in the late 80's) long B4 they advertised it on TV or about the vaccine 4 it
He had patches of blisters on his back & face that were so severely itchy & painful & oozy The doctor diagnosed it as shingles as it looks quite different than most other skin diseases They were worried about it spreading 2 his eyes
Back then they had no medications 2 treat it but said he must have had chicken pox when he was a child as the virus then remains dormant in the body for years until something like stress can trigger it 2 re- activate
My dad never ever took a sick day from work but in this case he was off for about a month with only Tylenol 2 help - yikes
It is also contagious if you happen to touch the secretions from the oozing blisters which he was told not to scratch so he had to have his own towels & bedding so my mom & I didnt have contact with any of the fluid
My mom slept in my room just 2 B safe
It is definately another nasty dreadful skin horrible painful itchy disease 4 sure as like with PN it is associated with the nerve endings thus the sharp painful sensations similar to PN - Just oozing itchy blisters instead of itchy painful scabby nodules
Take care❤️
Hope U get better soon💚
Please just get a proper diagnosis 2 know 4 sure as it can spread 2 other body parts very quickly
It usually appears on the torso in a large area in most people but can show up anywhere
