What can be done for a blister on my foot?
Question:
Answers:
At Walgreens or Walmart in the first aid section there are blister band aids. They work great and stay on even while hiking. I think Band Aid and Nexcare both have a product.

Smack it real hard and yell "GO AWAY BLISTER!"
Tape it w/ blister tape. You could also tape some cotton on there too if it bothers you during the day.
i put wart and corn remover on it and it releaved the irritation
for a blister on the ball of your foot you could put a hot towel on there and stay off it for a few days and eventually it will be ready to bust
Go see a podiatrist asap. May need to get them popped. Are they in little clusters and is there itching? If so you may have a fungal infection (athletes' foot).
I know they say not to pop it, but I always do. It speeds up healing time dramatically! Just make sure you keep it very clean, otherwise infection will set in. Simply take a clean needle and gently pop it so the fluid comes out. Clean it well and put neosporin on it with a bandaid. Do this before you go to bed and by the next morning it should be much more comfy to walk on. If it still really hurts put some gauze in the bandaid for extra cushioning!
Put something cold on it to prevent it from swelling no more than it needs to. Then put some gauze and a bandage over it that covers the whole thing. Try not to walk on the blister (I know it will be hard since it is on a main pressure point), and DO NOT pop it! This just makes it hurt even more. Sorry about it, they are nasty!
