What are Watery Skin Lesions?
Watery skin lesions are small, fluid-filled bumps that appear on the skin. They can range in size from dime-sized spots, to larger patchy areas. They often appear when the skin has been irritated and is tender or sensitive. Watery skin lesions are usually harmless and do not require any treatment, however, some may cause discomfort and should be examined by a doctor.

Treatment of Watery Skin Lesions
Treatment for watery skin lesions will depend on the underlying cause. For instance, allergies, infections, and skin conditions should be treated with medications, creams, lotions, or other forms of therapy. If the cause of the watery lesions is due to irritation, such as friction from clothing or jewelry, then the irritation should be stopped immediately.
Whatever the cause, it is important to keep the affected area clean and dry to prevent infection, and to make sure the lesions are healing properly. Any skin discoloration, blistering, or extreme pain should be reported to a doctor immediately.
