Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I read carefully your query and I understand your concern. Epidermolysis bulls is an inherited skin disease not an infection, it causes skin blister in response to minor injury, heat. The infection (bacterial infection) is one of the complications that happen when you have epidermolysis bulls. You have a positive family history for this and from this you have a risk to have this disease depending on the type that your parents suffer. There are three type of this disease, and they vary from them for their inherited way. Epidermolysis Tulsa simplex, it is an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. If one parent has the single faulty gene, you have a 50 percent chance of having the defect. Junctional epidermolysis bulls, it is when both of your parents carry one copy of the defective gene and passed on the defective gene this is an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. In this case if both parents carry one faulty gene, you have a 25 percent chance of developing the disorder. Dystrophic epidermolysis bulls. This type can be either dominant or recessive. To diagnose which of them has your mother and to know if you have this disease you should have a biopsy skin and a genetic consultation. I recommend you to go to a dermatologist and genetic doctor for your problem. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Kind regards, Chat Doctor. Maria BANK
