Do nail fungal infections (really bad ones) cause severe blistering around the nail and down the finger?

I know I have a fungal infections on 4 of my nails from wearing artificial nails, and it's getting worse, but is it normal to have blisters (lots of tiny water filled ones) all up and down your fingers? I went to the doc and she presecibed me Lamisil, and an antibiotic, however, i'm thinking I may have come in contact with poison ivy, and that's what the blisters are? I don't know. Is the blistering normal with really bad nail infections?

Take the medications prescribed by your doctor. stay away from wearing artificial nails until after it clears up. see a skin doctor about the poison ivy and ask what's the cause of the blisters.

yes it does
go to a doctor
