my dd has from the age of 3months developed blisters that then burst, bleed and become scabs. They started off on her legs, and she has had one or two on her arms. I took her to the doctor and he seemed as miffed aqs I was. He prescribed clotromidazol cream, and that appears to have calmed it down. #I have siunce stopped using bath products and soaps and creams that are perfumed, but she still has the odd outbvreak, mostly on her legs. Any on had any experience of this and whether it is a firm of eczema..........? She is 5 mnths now, have stopped using the cream after hearing adverse effects after prolongued use.

It does sound like an allergy. Did you start to do anything different at 3 months? E.g. start formula? She should have allergy tests but you'll really need to push for them. Like I said on the other thread, try to use natural stuff wherever possible.

I have heard of a type of eczema that forms blisters.
