I got a good blister yesterday from batting practice and I have a double header today.?

Question

What's the best thing to do to the blister to be able to play today? (Basically block out the pain)

Answer 1

Other than strapping it up, putting anti-septic cream on it and taking a paracetamol there's not a lot you can really do. Though it also depends on how big it is. Larger blisters should be covered with a gauze pad or dressing that you can then tape in place. But If you have a blister in a position that is causing you pain (such as on the sole of your foot or on your hand), it's important to cover it with a soft dressing to pad and protect it. Do not try and burst it or take the skin away as it will only make it worse!
