        I am on day 17 of aldara and i am blistering like mad, which is a good thing!  As I understand it, the blisters mean the drug is working. The good thing is that the blisters do not hurt. I have to use it between my lip and up to the top of my nose. I learned the hard way how easy it is to seep into my mouth (my lips blew up!). I was a mess with blistering in my mouth. Be careful with your eye…use vaseline to protect skin that should not get aldara.  Also, for me it took about a week  or so using it before i was flu-like.  Fingers crossed the drug works!!

            Anything yet? I understand putting a little vasoline over the spot once aldara is off works kind of like saran in that it seals the med in…I don't need that. I look like i have cigarette burns covering my upper lip.
