Blister: The first step is to protect the irritated area as soon as you see signs of redness that signal the development of a blister. Apply some moleskin (a flannel-covered adhesive bandage) on the vulnerable area. You can also use a water-based gel-pad dressing (one brand is known as "2nd skin" by spenco) or a blister plaster.
