Hi. I have a question for you medical people. A colleague of mine has just been told that he has got bullous pemphigoid. It looks disgusting, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't afraid of it. of getting it as well, mainly. Can you tell me please - is bullous pemphigoid contagious or not?

I am happy to tell you that bullous pemphigoid is not contagious. It is an autoimmune skin disorder that attacks healthy cells in the body because it is mistaking them for a disease. I know that bullous pemphigoid will never win a beauty contest, but you need to be supportive of your colleague right now and not afraid of him.

My sister has bullous pemphigoid and my mother of 93 is showing the symptoms of it also. Is this a hereditary disease?
