I've been playing a lot of golf this week, and had just bought some new spikes. Well, they weren't quite broken in yet, and as a result, I have blisters all over my feet. Not fun.

My mom always told me the best way to treat a blister was to pop it with a sterile needle. So, I take a needle from one of those sowing kits that comes with a suit, and try to sterilize it by heating it with a match.

Long story short, I burned my hand and now have blisters on my right hand as well as on my feet. Doh!

🙁

Does it actually make it worse? I was going to finish the job before I went to bed, at least when you get all the fluid out they don't hurt whenever you bump them just slightly.

Not unless you get them infected, no.

And yeah, getting rid of the pressure relieves pain.
 
🙁. my mom always says that everything will heal in time and i know it's true but none the less, it is annoying when she says it. it hurts, but it will heal. eventually...

Please do tell, Dr Excelsior, what is the best treatment? I've read popping blisters does not help anything.

I'm 17. Not that I see what that has to do with anything.

Bart: [chuckles] Lisa's in trouble. Ha! The ironing is delicious.
Lisa: The word is "irony".
Bart: Huh?
