Can a blister turn into a bedsore if it is on your back/hip area? (more details inside)?

I have a terrible case of the flu to were I can't really get out of bed. I had a big blister on my side maybe 2 or 3 inches from side to side. And My husband staralized a needle for me and popped it. I put neosporin on it after that. That happened right when I got sick, I wasn't that sick when that happened and that was 4 days ago. I have not gotten out of bed since because I have been so ill. The popped blister after the first day and a half started to become very painful, mostly feels extremly sore and sensitive. The last time I looked at it in the mirror it looks redish, brownish and part of it looks dark purple, also even though the blister part is gone the redness and all that has spread. I WILL SEE A DOCTOR ABOUT IT!!! but I wanted to know if anyone had any advise or knew what this was. Is it a bedsore forming or does it sound more like it is just getting infected?

I believe it is both, a pressure sore, and infected. The pressure sores I have seen, have started out in varying degrees as yours did. I don't understand how that could happen in one day though. You are very right to see a doctor. To keep it from happening again, change positions at least every 2 hours.

I think that a bed sore is the same as a infection but I'm not to sure. But it just sounds like to me that it is infected.wash it and keep neosporin on it. And try and let the air get to it as much as you can.

Good to see you are going to a doctor! Now, bedsores form because of localised pressure to a part of the body, and the local skin, and the lower layers of skin where the pressure is begin to break down because of reduced blood flow. It sounds like you might well have one. It will almost certainly be infected, and you are right to take it seriously, even though it is early days.
God bless, and best of luck with that! :)

I believe that you may have a condition called Hidradenitis Supprativa. It is re-occurring boils/ cysts/abscesses that are often misdiagnosed as ingrown hairs, herpes, being unclean or over weight and folliculitis. This is a newly diagnosed skin condition , but there is a lot of info out there if you are looking.

If this sounds like it might be you, READ it, PRINT it out, and TAKE it to your DOC.
It鈥檚 better to try to start treatment soon, it can spread over the body if left untreated. These boils can become quite large and painful. Sometimes even lasting for weeks or months , do not attempt to POP them they can then tunnel under your skin and spread all over the body. Most common areas are armpits, groin, bikini line, inner legs, and intimate places and basically anywhere that sweats and rubs against clothing. Stress is a big inducer.

I am open for questions!
I have had this for 8 years, I was misdiagnosed for a LONG time, and it was very embarrassing, painful and scary. I am just trying to help out so you don鈥檛 have to wait as long as I did.

Currently I have 5, 2 next to each other on my right inner groin. 2 in my upper HAIR area, and 1 med sized on my butt on the panty line, and they do come every week or so. I find that certain foods, not having a regular showering regimen, wearing clothing that irritates the area.. And STRESS usually is a precursor to getting one.

I also prefer to use NEXCARE bandages.. There are 2 kinds I like for comfort and stay put reasons..
The first is like a clear band aid.... soft on the edges with a small area of bandage... helps with those buggers when they are on bikini line.. Usually stay for me.. Or occasionally on my inner thigh for those I like the foamy sponge like ones that are beige in color.. I think they are 3M.
