Fever Blisters

2018-03-24 11:28:10
I had fever on Sunday which resulted into fever blisters. I visited a pharmacy and they prescribed me "Polysporin skin ointment". On first day apply, yellow liquid oozed out and now nothing is coming out of blisters. They itch and are forming dry crust. I want to know how long will it take to heal?

You need a a cream not an ointment over the blister. Try finding out and antibiotic and steroid combination for the same and start having one antihistamine it will reduce the itch. Healing will take atleast 4-5 days after the scab falls off.
Next Steps
You need to examined but the doctor generally fever with blisters is a sign of chicken pox. Kindly see a dermatologist
