What are his basking temps? How about a picture of his setup?

Sounds like he's getting burned by his lights.

BTW, DO NOT pop the blisters. You probbaly want to take a 10% hydrogen peroxide solution and dab it on his back, make sure you get the places where the skin that will soon become infected is.

it sounds to me that he is too close to his uvb light and neosporin would probably be better to use
