Coping and support
Treating and preventing blisters and complications of epidermolysis bullosa can be stressful for you, your child and family members. You may find it helpful to share concerns and information with families in similar circumstances. Ask your health care providers about epidermolysis bullosa support groups in your area. If joining a support group isn't for you, ask about counselors, clergy or social workers who work with families coping with epidermolysis bullosa.
