@JimmyB@mas.to looks like a leaf curl fungus to me https://www.rhs.org.uk/disease/peach-leaf-curl, I don't really have any helpful advice on treating it though

@JimmyB@mas.to Sorry about your poorly pear. Are you in the UK or Europe? If so, suspect it's scab (but without a close-up, could be pear rust). Both are fungal diseases. https://www.rhs.org.uk/disease/apple-and-pear-scab

@JimmyB@mas.to Looks like blisters, in which case the cause is probably a mite infestation.Perhaps a result of it being very dry? Spraying with water may upset them a bit. Unsightly but probably not lethal.
