whats the best way to treat blisters after a run?

Question:

i use a needle to get rid of juice every time sometimes i take skin of but it kills when i go in bath how would yuo treat a blister

Answers:
This is a two step process, first as you know you are prone to blistering, purchase some moleskin or if you're like me and can't seem to get that to work, put band-aides on the spots that tend to blister. Make sure you wear fitted socks, so you don't have movement in your shoe while you're running. Socks that wick the moisture away from your feet are better too.

If you rub the skin raw and used moleskin or band-aides, you are less apt to get the blister with the puss but more like a carpet burn

Two: Once you get the blister and you open it (DON"T TAKE THE SKIN OFF AFTER YOU DRAIN IT), treat it like a burn you got in the kitchen, apply ice and cool water to the area. Soothe the area-- it may alleviate some of the subsequent burn you get in the shower. Cover the area with gauze and allow your feet to breathe to dry the area out (so the skin will fall off easily on its own). Powder your feet and inside your socks to help keep them dry.

** My buddy in boot camp claimed aloe rub worked well to heal and soften the skin...but I cannot attest to this.

Boots has a spray for blisters and its very good, i use it.
