Hello,
For these pusy blisters, bacterial and fungal infection should be ruled out. In such a case of bacterial infection, the overlying skin is red, warm and painful. Then a course of topical and oral antibiotics is needed. The other possibility is of a viral infection.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
