Are they bites maybe? Any pets that might have fleas?

@Tillow4ever No they aren't really like flea bites, they are more like blisters that are in little clusters. And no one else has them, and the animals are treated. They don't itch either they burn.

It’s Dishydrotic eczema

Yeah dishydrotic or pompholyx eczema. It's horrible. You can get steroid cream for it. I hope you manage to get rid of it soon. Mine went away one day and never returned!

@Clarabellawilliamson glad it went away for you, I hope that happens for me to lol it's bloody horrible. Last time I went to our pharmacy when the kids had chicken pox they googled it to diagnose it so I try avoid going lol

Don't be like me- I never persued treatment properly and it got really bad, then it got infected. I finally went to the gp and they prescribed me some cream which really sorted it out and I felt so annoyed at myself for not going sooner!

@Clarabellawilliamson I'll get some cream for it later thank you ☺️
