How do you treat an open cut on your foot due to popping a blister?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Clean and cover: Clean it with normal saline. Do not use peroxide. Cover it with a sterile bandage and put antibiotic ointment on it. Treat it like this for about 5-10 days or until the blister has dried at its base. Do not allow it to open air, as the risk for a staph infection is high with broken blisters.
