A doctor has provided 1 answer

Blister: If the yellow and red area is small and redness is not spreading, gently wash the area, pat dry, apply an antibacterial ointment like bacitracin or Neosporin, cover with a sterile gauze held in place with paper tape. The hole will gradually scab and fill in. Keep it protected. If spreading redness,pain,swelling or pus formation have a physician examine and advise you.
