A member asked:

What can i do for a toe blister that has drained but bleeds every time my daughter plays basketball? band-aids and antibiotic ointment haven't helped.

Shoes: Take a look at her shoes, the toe box may be too small and causing repeated friction and preventing the blister from healing completely.

Toe blister: There are stick-on devices that protect the area from pressure of the shoe. It sounds as if your daughter's athletic shoes are irritating this area, and if there is a college in your area one of the team trainers may know how to adjust the shoe to minimize this. Or, you might see a podiatrist. Hope she is better soon.
