Scar blister

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Hi All,

On one of my old (at least 6 months old )scars on my arm has formed a blister and several times it has burst. Sometimes with clear fluid, or blood but now it has been filled with yellow puss. it's hot around the outside and noticibly red.

why has this formed?

is it infected?

what should i do- cover it or leave it open?

Any ideas would be great.

    Hi Brunette Barbie :wave: ,

    It sounds like the blister on your arm may be infected by the symptoms you have described, I would definately advise you to go and see your G.P or go to your nearest NHS walk in centre as soon as possible and get it checked out, they will be able to have a look and get it treated.

    let us know how you are getting on!!

    Take care,
