A member asked:
I have 4 good sized blisters on my feet. they're painful, & i'm having trouble walking. i'll be on my feet for most of the day tomorrow. what do i do?

Drain them: You may want to consider popping the blisters with a sterile needle. This way you can drain the fluid out, which will give you relief. Do not deroof or remove the skin. The skin will become a barrier against infection. Apply some triple anabiotic and gauze on them during the day tomorrow. Wear socks with comfortable fitting shoes
