Accepted Answer

Photo needed: A photograph can be very helpful in arriving at the possible diagnosis.

Question 2

should i pop my blood blister?

Accepted Answer

It may help: Sterilizing a needle by fire and piercing a blood blister may help relieve pressure and pain.  That said, if there are any questions, you should visit a medical professional.  Also, do not remove a blister entirely, as blisters can protect raw skin.

Question 3

how can  you treat a blood blister?

Accepted Answer

Leave or release: If the pressure is unbearable, clean it and a sterile needle with some alcohol and puncture it from the side to release the blood.  Do not remove the roof as this will act as a natural dressing until the skin underneath heals and pushes this dead skin off.   I recommend aquaphor and a bandage for 24 hrs after puncturing.  And do not touch it if you are diabetic and it is on your foot - get checked.

Question 9

how long does it take a giant blood blister to go away?

Accepted Answer

Hematoma?: A blood blister is caused by a pinch to the skin and is rarely large. A more traumatic event will cause a hematoma, a large collection of blood.  Unlike rules about blisters if this is extremely large or doesn't start to decrease in size it may not shrink on its own breakdown of blood products may cause a bigger deeper wound.  This needs to be drained by a physician with good wound care thereafter.
