A member asked:

I have a burnt blister on my thigh and it looks like a bubble can i pop it so i can wear pants and cover it with a bandage?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Then wash it. The shower will work. Wash before you pop it. A needle can be cleaned with water & alcohol. Use a bandage which will not get glued to it. As it heals you can soon go without any bandage. Avoid bacitracin, neosporin triple-antibiotic as these are useless & may be harmful. You can lubricate it with vaseline or aquaphor.
