Probably normal: Blisters form over irritated skin to prevent the nerves from being exposed to air (which is extremely painful). Now that your blister is no longer protecting those nerve endings, they hurt! Cover the exposed, oozing area with a thick layer of antibacterial ointment and cover with a bandage. Keep the area covered until it heals. Watch for expanding redness and warmth which could indicate infection.
