A member asked:

I got a bite from a black ant and it really itches. my finger feels like it is throbbing a little. i was wondering if i should pop the blister and how?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Leave the blister alone. You can apply anti-itch cream or medication to relieve the discomfort, but the blister will eventually open on its own or recede. Popping it may make it more prone to secondary infection.
