How do I get rid of a Blood Blister on my finger?

Question:

I was dunking around at the gym yesterday and i got a blood blister on my finger from the rim. I was wondering if anyone has experienced this before and if so, how do I get rid of it. I got one o couple years ago and I tried to let it heal natuarally but you can STILL see it today. This one is bigger so i would like to get rid of it right away if possible.

Answers:
Sterilize a needle and lance the blister. It's just blood that has collected underneath the skin. Once you've gotten the blood out, clean the area good with hydrogen peroxide and place a band-aid over it.

Left alone, eventually the body will re-absorb the blood, but as you've noted it takes a good while.

Other Answers:
Try putting ice on it. Normally, they just go completely away on their own.

Put a sterile needle in and drain, then clean with anti-biotic and but bandade on. Keep area clean till heals.

You can't feel this at all!

I did that, so my grandma "sterilized" a needle with a hole on the end.she thread a long piece of thread through it, and she put the needle through it. Leave the thread it but take the need out. After that you just leave it in and the thread just soaks up the blood, and the hole left there may be small, but the blood dries out and it goes away.

P.S. when you put the string in it, put a band-aid over it, making sure you cover up both ends of the string, that way yoy don't accidentally pull the string out!

it should go away with time. give it a fw days and it should be gone.
