Ahh! blisters help?


Question:
so i was at my friends house and i couldnt find my flip flops. i had to be back at my house like right then. so i was like you know what screw it and i walked. (i only live like two streets away so of course i walked) and its 100 degreese outside. i now have two burn blisters on the bottom of each foot. and it HURTS!! soooo bad to walk. i have registration for my new school tommorw at like 3:00 pm. what can i do to make my blisters stop hurting/ go away really really fast. btw does tooth paste really work for those things?

Answers:
No, toothpaste will not help blisters. It's only good for your teeth,and that's the only place it's useful. For the blisters, if you like, you can deflate them. Use a needle or sharp pin, and clean it with alcohol before you use it. Poke a hole in the side of the blister- just one hole is necessary. The liquid should drain itself out and deflate the blister enough to make things more comfortable for you. Don't peel off the skin covering it, don't even try because that will hurt much worse than it does now. If you have an antibiotic ointment, smear a tiny bit on a bandaid and put that on the blister. Try to keep the feet out of shoes and socks as much as you can- if you can swing wearing sandals to register that would be best. The blisters may refill, so don't do this until shortly before you are due to go out. You can poke them again if you need to, but be careful that needle or pin is clean, really clean. Otherwise don't mess with the blisters at all, and don't slather on strange potions to cure them, they won't and you can't anyway. Your body will reabsorb the fluid, and when the skin beneath it has healed enough the dry skin cover will flake off. Expect to have them several days before they deflate and stay that way.
