Blisters suddenly appeared on my feet

If blisters appear on the feet, it is generally caused by fungal infection, also commonly known as athlete's foot. This is a common disease. The appearance of blisters is a blister-type athlete's foot, which can be treated by certain methods. The most common method is to use some topical anti-fungal drugs, such as compound salicylic acid. In addition to medication, you should pay attention to developing good hygiene habits.

Home medication:

(1) Erosive type: first soak in 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution or 0.1% refollicle-stimulating agent solution, then apply gentian violet or athlete's foot powder twice a day. After drying, apply athlete's foot ointment or tinea versicolor ointment twice a day.

(2) Blister type: Soak your feet in hot water and apply clotrimazole anti-tinea lotion or compound salicylic acid tincture once a day. After the skin is dry, apply athlete's foot cream or tinea pedis ointment.

(3) Keratotic type: Apply compound benzoic acid cream or apply it alternately with compound salicylic acid alcohol, once in the morning and once in the evening. It is best to wrap the area with plastic film after applying the medicine so that the medicine can penetrate into the thick skin and facilitate peeling off the thick skin.

(4) In recent years, foot powder has been used clinically to treat various types of athlete's foot, with significant efficacy. Soaking feet once a night will be effective after three times. See instructions for specific usage.

Medically, athlete's foot is usually divided into three types:

1. Erosive type: It often occurs between the third and fourth toes, and between the fourth and fifth toes. Initially, the spaces between the toes are damp, whitish or small blisters appear. After drying and scaling, the dandruff reveals a moist, flushed eroded surface that is extremely itchy and prone to secondary infection.

2. Blister type: often occurs on the edge of the foot. Initially, they appear as small blisters with thick and full walls. Some of them may merge into large blisters. The blister fluid is transparent and there is no redness around them. The patient feels extremely itchy, and scratching often leads to secondary infection, such as erysipelas and lymphangitis.

3. Keratinic type: often occurs on the heels. The main symptoms are thick and dry skin, keratinization and desquamation, itching, and easy cracking. This type of disease has no blisters or suppuration, and the course of the disease is slow and does not heal for many years.
