If the doctor said it's viral, it could be Hand Foot and Mouth disease. My kids had it last spring and it took 3 doctors to get it diagnosed properly. The first two also said it was "viral", but weren't specific. if it is viral, that means it is contagious. Did the child have a fever before the blisters broke out? Sore throat?
I didn't know excema could cause blisters...this thread has been informative in a disgusting way
