  1. you should do absolutely nothing. anyone who says to pop it is wrong because it increases your healing time and increases your chance of infection


  2. You could check out this site that will tell you what you should do.

    Good luck hope you feel better.

  3. f you do get a blister, focus on keeping it from getting bigger and minimizing infection. Signs of infection are pus, warm and red skin around the affected area, and the formation of thin red streaks that lead away from the blister. You can leave tiny, painless unbroken blisters alone to heal, because the skin covering the fluid is the best protection that a blister has against infection. However, if your blisters are large and painful, you should do something about it. If you have no choice due to, say, demands in your work, you may opt to drain your blisters.

  4. Boil a small amount of vineagar and salt for about three minutes, then let cool and use a sterile bandage to wipe the blister about once every 1-3 hours until it heals enough to be ignored.
