Blisters around the buttocks area

2020-07-04 04:08:19
Hi, My son has been having blisters which break along with itching around the buttocks area. It started from start of May. It started in a small area in the beginning. I applied Neosporin powder and the first bunch of blisters subsided. Again next set started in new places spreading to wider area. All along with these, itching persists. Now it is almost spread to entire buttocks. As I scared to go to hospital in this Covid circumstances, I have started applying Candid ointment on an experimental basis assuming it is a fungal infection from two days. Kindly suggest an appropriate treatment as it is getting worse along time. Regards Anitha
