If you get a blister...

[-:Undertaker:-]

If you get a blister - and people usually get them from burns - do you leave it to heal as you are supposed to or do you purposely pick it to drain it? I get blisters time and time when I am doing stuff in the garden, usually from hedge/bush trimming or from digging and I have to say I like *****ing them to drain them... it's oddly satisfying. Plus I personally think they heal better like that.

How about you?

I give them a couple of days to settle down and then I ***** the skin and drain the fluid. The skin then just dries and I peel the dead skin away them put some antiseptic cream on the actual burn.

I always lance them, nothing like a bit of self surgery to sort out all your problems

I get so many on my feet, they usually pop by themselves because of the extra friction on them.

I hardly get them but if I do I let them heal, I wouldn't dare touch them I hate feet enough as it is lol

[thms]

i would never touch them eww

Popping them or trying to pick at them usually leads to infection
If you wanna pop a blister (or even something like a spot for that matter), run a needle/pin under hot water and then pierce the skin. If it bleeds, it's not ready to go so just leave it alone.

I soak my feet in hot water and just leave it at night and then put padded plasters on it in the day.

Eeerr, I do leave them but the last one I had got really painful.

[Absently]

They always just tend to pop by themselves even when I leave them
