I have blisters which i went to the doctors about and said it was chafing but i think it now could be impetigo how do i know?

Not chaffing: chaffing should not give you blisters.it only is luke a rub burn. Blisters could mean a virus(herpes)or impetigo either ways you need to be seen and treated! goodluck
