I'M NOT!!

[absynth aura]

I have a blister on the side of my foot, and I'm halfway between "ew that's disgusting" and "pop it, pop it, pop it"

[Captain Oblivious]

Popping it is the worst thing you can do. Let it heal

[absynth aura]

I know. I just love to pop things.
I've put socks on to reduce the temptation.

Depends, if it's in a place where it's likely to burst, it's better to pop it with sterilised stuff, rather than it to burst in unknown conditions...

hmmm i just found a half full bottle of red wine in the fridge which is probably already 3 months old. will i die if i drink it?

No. But don't be shocked if it tastes like vinegar.

Aha! It actually tasted like wine, albeit not like spectacular wine

It's on the side, near my big toe, almost underneath

As long as you keep everything clean and don't like, tear it open or something, draining blisters generally makes it less painful.
I've had people argue with that before, but I heard it from a friend of mine who is a nurse and I've found it to be true, for the most part.

I don't like talking about blisters. Blergh.

Also you should probably put a plaster over it.

I sometimes use a needle (make sure it's clean) and make a tiny hole in the blisters so if there's any liquid in it, it can get out. That way it won't be open, but there won't be any mess inside it either. After that just put a band aid on it and let it heal. Works for me most of the time.

this is my preferred method.

If you're not planning to cauterize it with a red-hot poker from the fireplace,   

this is as good a method as any, I suppose.....

you'd use your good poker on a blister?  this is the sort of thing you'd want to heat up a stick or something for.  or hell, just slap a flaming charcoal briquette on it.

Well it must be...  a couple inches across at least, right?
No sense mentioning it in the interweb otherwise...

^i saw that on Facebook, it amused me.


It wasn't a big blister, just a random thought.
I think it's more or less healed itself now though
