Buck used to live a normal life until he started noticing blisters forming all over his body. Appearing in the latest episode (September 10) of the show, Buck revealed that living with the blisters was like having '100 needles poking' you at once. He first started noticing the blisters three years ago and did not think much of them. 

At first, he thought they were big bug bites and decided to ignore them. However, things changed once he realized that they were not normal. Buck noticed that the blisters were forming on his leg, hand and other areas of the body as well. One of his biggest worries was what they had been doing inside the body. Buck admitted that he had met other doctors but they were not able to give him a concrete answer of what the reason might be that the listers start appearing. To make things worse, they have made his life painful. Buck admitted that it was hard for him to take a shower as they would itch and pain. 

Living his past three years in pain, Buck knew he did not want to go ahead with life like this.  He decided to seek help from Dr Sandra Lee and explained what was happening. During their conversation, Buck revealed that he often felt when the blisters were going to form. He admitted that he could feel the sensation from inside and it was not a pretty one. 

He further added that the blisters were filled with fluid and once they broke, it was rough from inside. After hearing Buck and his problems, Dr Lee stated that Buck could have a case of Tense and Flaccid blisters. She explained that the tense blisters are the ones that are commonly filled with fluid while the flaccid blisters are the ones that will break just with a touch. Even though she had an idea of what it might be, Dr Lee wanted to be sure about the diagnosis. She stated that Buck's body was seeing the skin as an enemy and reacting to it. 

To find out what the reason might be, she decided to get an MRI first. Dr Lee assured Buck that she would find a way to stop it as she did not want him living his life in pain. 

'Dr Pimple Popper: Before The Pop' airs on Thursdays at 10 pm ET on TLC.
