Blood Blister Ive got a massive one and its really sore...should I pricdk it with a needle or leave it ?
I get them on the bottom of my feet now n then from thai boxing, i left them originally but they only get bigger lol once i'd popped them they seemed to go, they aren't the nicest of things like lol.
Its its bigger than a cm then leave it. I had got a water blister playing indoor football and it was about an inch in diameter, it covered almost all of my big toe. I left it and went on the piss and the next morning it was inflamed and proper painful. I had to slice through proper thick skin to get the water out. Then it got infected because i had an inch of red raw skin exposed. Painful stuff like. I had to wait 4 weeks to walk normally again.
I pricked it with a needle but then its just exactly the same as it was when Ive woken up and sealed again
as claire said your body forms a blister for a reason, to protect it. better off leaving it until it has healed
lol no way wud i leave it, they nack to stand on. As sick as it seems i just pop them n make sure ive got all the shite out of it otherwise like jess said it'll seal back over, once all the craps out it just turns to dry skin and goes.
It doesn't have the brains to realise that it's just getting in the way and won't let you wipe your arse effectively, or hold a spoon. So it needs to be popped!
No but we have evolved in such a way that blood blisters are sealed for a reason, and thats to stop infection.
