Hi everyone, I have a question. I am copd/asthma. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a random blister on the side of my leg, dont know where it came from, tonight it is very pink and tender, could it be an ulcer? Anyone else had this?...... Janet

Has it increased in size Janet? I’d get it checked out just to be on the safe side.

Let us know how you get on. Xxxxx

Either phone 111 or ring your GP first thing so he can take a look.

Hope it will be ok. Xxxxx

Hi Janet, could something have bit you? Like a spider, they are wanting in for winter. If it popped and somethings beside it, please go have it looked at, whatever it is could be infected.

Let us know how it goes....take care.

If a GP appointment is a challenge, visit your local chemist and see what the pharmacist thinks.

Blisters can appear with friction or heat for no reason maybe you rubbed it on something in the night . I would certainly go see your doctor especially now you have another maybe something and nothing but for your own peace of mind get checked over 💞💞

I cant I've got a dressing on. The doctor has put me on antibiotics, and iodine dressings, if it's a bite it will heal, if not I have to go back, incase it's my circulation !

Not what you're looking for?
