Fixed drug eruption?: Sorry to hear of this problem, but glad you're seeing a dermatologist. S/he is the best person to further evaluate the problem. Your question about allergy may be a clue. Certain medications can cause this sort of thing. "Burn" like and "seeping" suggest the kind of allergy called fixed drug eruption. Ask the dermatologist. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) probably won't help much.
