Baby blister rash *TMI blister pics*

I have been to the out of hours doctors who couldn't really tell me what this was, only they think it's scolded skin syndrome.. baby doesn't seem bothered by it at all and no fever.
It started off as a small blister which I thought maybe she had caught her arm on a toy or something as she's now moving and climbing up things, however overnight it developed into the larger rash with more blisters?

Anyone else experienced similar? They've given me antibiotics

Looks like impetigo, so antibiotics chosen thinking of staph scalded skin (same bug) should work nicely.

Thank you! Doctors confirmed it today as impetigo 😬

Hi I know this is an old post but my daughters developed patches like this that started off as blisters and she just keeps getting more and more been given loads of creams and they’re leaving smooth brown scars.
Did it clear on your daughter and she did get anymore? X

@Lauren8642

It cleared and came back a few days later, she had to go on a weeks course of antibiotics and steroid cream 😊
