Protective Mechanism: Blisters are a protective mechanism that occur on the body secretes a fluid cushion under the skin in response to trauma such as a burn. If you pop them, you expose the injured tissue an increased risk of infection. Using a protective dressing and avoiding stress/trauma to the area will promote fastest healing and let the blister pop on its own when it's ready.
