Help! Am I starting to get blood poisoning?

Question

I had soccer camp all last week, and this week so far from 9-3. The first day, I got a blister right above my heel. The second day, it popped by itself from my shoes. (I learned now they are way too tight) My blister cannot heal because it keeps getting rubbed open everyday. I put bandaids on it, even wrapped it up with the bandaids in tact, but they always seem to slip away and not stick to my wound. Now, it is very red around it, and I am starting to get a red line from the blister, almost to my ankle. Is it serious? Should I seek medical attention? I heard if you let it go too long, it could be fatal. Could it even be blood poisonig? Please help!

Answer 1

The area may be infected.  If you are at a camp tell one of the coaches and they will help you.  Maybe call your mom and tell her she needs to buy you a new pair of shoes.
