My girl has got these things that look like water blisters behind her front legs. They don't look painful, she still walks with ease, and when I touch them she doesn't seem to mind, and they aren't hard...she is in perfect health, and her behaviour hasn't changed, is there anything to be concerned about?

I believe there is a disease called blister disease, though I think it affects snakes, not completely sure. I suggest bringing your gecko to see a vet to find out what caused the blisters and how to treat them.

Yeah, I figured it was probably best to take her to the doc, just making sure..Thanks!

The blisters in front of the legs are fatty deposits. They usually show up when the gecko is on the "plump" side and is nothing to be concerned about.
