Blisters on Leg

My husband had total knee replacement and now the same leg is developing large blisters on it, why? What could cause it?

Thank you,

Re: Blisters on Leg

You should contact the doctor immediately. It could be anything from some sort of infection to some reaction to anything used on the knee during/after surgery (i.e. iodine, bandages, etc).
