Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.
Hi everyone,
Over the summer I started to developed blister like pimples,on my forearm. Soon after I noticed them on my hands and wrist. Some are actual little blister that if,opened take forever to heal. When they do heal there is a distinct pinkish scare with a rise,to,it. They have started to appear on my feet, legs, groin area, and backside. They do not itch.
I was curious if this might be related to the Hep C.
I've looked on line and none of the pics looks like what I have
I am seeing a dermatologist this week. Hopefully it's something that can be cleared with right cream or oral steroid. I would be curious to know what is causing it.
Thanks in advance

My hep doc told me it was Hep C related and I have personally found that remaining calm helps me get rid of it.....Also my diet, eating well.
Hope this helps......I can clear up completely and then panic hits and boom it comes back.....
On my skin, they called them pistules, I believe.
Good luck.
