A blistering skin condition or immuno-bullous disease generally refers to an autoimmune disease that presents with one or more blisters; small vesicle or large bulla.[1] Diseases in this group share the feature of having demonstrable antibodies against particular components of the skin.[1] Epidermolysis bullosa is not autoimmune and is excluded from this group.[1] Other skin conditions not included in this group that also classically feature blisters of varying sizes include eczema, impetigo, insect bites, erythema multiforme, drug eruptions.[2]
