A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blisters: She has no choice but to keep off her feet as much as possible and wear loose fitting footwear. Keep the blisters clean, dry and loosely padded with gauze. You may apply an antibiotic ointment before wrapping the gauze. Wear only white Sox. Don't puncture the blisters yourself.Observe for spreading redness,pus and foot swelling which could indicate secondary infection. Have MD treat large ones
