What are the symptoms of bullous pemphigoid?

Bullous pemphigoid appears as itchy welts that look like hives or multiple, itchy blisters (bullae). It most commonly appears on your:

• Arms.
• Legs.
• Abdomen.
• Groin.
• Mouth.

The blisters typically appear along the creases of your skin. They usually aren’t painful, but they may break open and become a painful sore or ulcer.

The fluid inside of your blisters may be clear, or it may contain some blood. The skin around your blisters may look normal or discolored (red, purple, brown or slightly darker than your normal skin color).

Welts and blisters rarely result in scarring.
