How To Treat Foot Blisters (Like A Pro)!

- Blister treatment is a skill a lot of people get wrong. It makes their blisters take longer to heal and it makes them more painful than they need to be. Ok, let’s look at how you can set yourself up to manage foot blisters on the go.
PRODUCTS YOU'LL NEED
✅ BLISTER BANDAIDS: www.blister-pr...
✅ HYDROCOLLOID BANDAGES: www.blister-pr...
▶ 0:00 - INTRO
The best case scenario is you start at blister prevention. It really is your best chance of a no-fuss and pain-free time. Prevention is the key.
Failing that, if you're lucky you'll get a warning called a hot-spot. And you can start doing something about it here. If not, you'll be negotiating the slippery slope of blister treatment ... but let me warn you ... it's complicated!
▶ 0:35 - Blister Prevention
Do this preventive step right, and it’s happy days for you.

▶ 1:45 - Hot-Spot Management
But, if you neglect prevention or you’re unsuccessful with it, you might still get lucky and avoid a blister. You might get a brief sensation of heat called a hot-spot. This is your warning that a blister is on its way.
▶ 2:34 - Blister Treatment
OK, moving on. So you've missed the blister prevention boat. What comes next? Well, it depends on the integrity of your blister roof, which will either be intact, torn or deroofed.
▶ 2:46 - FOOT BLISTER SCENARIO 1: INTACT BLISTER ROOF
Scenario 1: So let’s say you’ve discovered a blister on your foot and the roof is still intact.
Here's What You Need To Do:
• Dress your blister - We know the majority of blisters will tear ("pop") if you put your shoes back on and just hope for the best. So the very least you can do is dress your blister to keep it clean, just in case. You'll need an island dressing. An island dressing has a middle bit that doesn't stick to your blister, with the outer bit being adhesive - so it keeps dirt and germs out. You know it’s important not to stick anything to an intact blister. Or the blister roof might tear when you remove the dressing. www.blister-pr...
• You need to check it regularly to see if the roof becomes torn. Because if this happens, you need to do extra stuff to make sure it doesn’t become infected.
• Reduce pressure - You can cushion it - with cushioned insoles or silicone gel covers. Or even better than cushioning is pressure deflection in the form of felt donut pads.
• Reduce friction - To reduce friction you need to make it more slippery. How do you do that? There’s really only two ways that will make a difference once you’ve got a blister: Lubricants; ENGO Blister Patches.
▶ 4:42 - FOOT BLISTER SCENARIO 2: TORN ROOF
Now for the next blister treatment scenario - the toen blister roof. Your aim is to keep the roof in place, even though it has torn.
Here's What You Need To Do:
• Apply antiseptic (like Betadine)
• Dress your blister - just like before.
• Reduce pressure - just like before
• Reduce friction - just like before
• Monitor regularly for infection
To Prevent Infection:
• Disinfect your hands
• Use a sterile dressing
• Monitor regularly for infection
• Seek medical attention if in doubt
What Are The Signs Of Infection?
• Pus
• Increased pain, swelling, redness, warmth
• Red streaks extending from the blister (medical emergency)
▶ 5:49 - FOOT BLISTER SCENARIO 3 - DEROOFED
Scenario 3 is a deroofed blister - where the top of the blister has rubbed off leaving a red raw sore.
Here's What You Need To Do:
• Apply antiseptic (like Betadine) - same as before
• Dress your blister - but with a hydrocolloid now there’s no skin on the blister.
• Reduce pressure - same as before
• Reduce friction - same as before
• Monitor regularly for infection

▶ 6:48 - WRAPPING UP
So that’s it. Now here’s something I hope you noticed. If you get a blister, you still have to use the best of the preventative strategies. Plus you’ve got all the extra stuff of antiseptic, dressings and monitoring. Not to mention the pain and the downtime for it to heal … Imagine if you just got prevention right in the first place, life would be so much easier.

Yep, treating blisters is complicated, no doubt about it. The best method I've found is to enter my home-made Tesla-Based Time Machine and Time-Travel backwards in Time a few days BEFORE the blister occurred. Works every time.
Professor Time 😂😂😂 true that! My feet are so burnt from running at at beach after my little sister (is 30 years old still considered “little”?) she was running to the port-a-John and I knew they were nasty and she needed Lysol wipes and her own toilet paper. So, while I was trying to take care of her, lol, I screwed myself.
stupid people = talk shit
Nobody likes a smart ass buddy
Im always playing basketball and after the 3rd match my foot is already blistered up and it sucks because i cant perform like i want to. thanks a lot.
I got mine from walking xD
Earth Worm Sally uea walking on hot concrete

Same
My stupid ass was on the treadmill for an hour
I had to walk home and it took so long, I wish I had known this before
*I had to walk a mile in 90 degree weather in a wet bathing suit BAREFOOT *

Great video and website is a fantastic resource too - thanks!
Excellent video and advice Rebecca, I'm walking the Camino de Santiago (800km) in September and blisters was one of my main concerns. Now I know how to prepare and prevent, I'm a lot happier!! Many Thanks
Hope you had fun!
ive been poppin my blisters for ages and it dry up and heal.
There are always the radicals!🤓
Im so stupid I put a needle in it to take out the liquid. Damn
Me 2 and it fucking hurt. Its still there.
G. Antonio Coronel once it poped just put dirt on it and walk it off😂
I wouldnt recommend popping it. It might cause infection and make it worst.
Oh shit, I just popped one yesterday
Horrible audio quality is it just me? very loud buzzing
When
Hydrocolloid pad blister plasters are as good as Rebecca says - not prone to blisters, but I was dealing with one for about 10 days until now and they are the real deal, folks. They are brilliant.
GREAT VIDEO! Best real world advice. I subscribed to your channel. Thank You!! 👍
Thanks for this video! It is so organized and easy to follow!
Mine happened because there was dew in the grass and I was running, still-alive skin peeled up and hurt so bad. A couple of days later a blister formed and it hurts right now..
I got 4 blisters from a swim and run aquathlon competition
for those that are looking for a walk/jog/run lifestyle you will keep getting blisters along the way, from my experience i drained it, sometimes put a band aid over it (maybe more bandaids to cover the area) after my workout session i would take a shower and facerage with soap the blister area making sure i clean it right away so bacteria does not build up in that area, make sure you are confident with the band aid patching and the washing do not half do it, i used band aids to reduce friction, i was 250 and went to 190 and over that time i had blisters about 10 different times about mostly front foot below the toes (yes it hurts lol) but BE YOUR OWN DOCTOR so do not do exactly what i do, just telling you what i did in my own personal experience, good luck walkers/joggers/runners
I just made the mistake of walking 1 mile in my work shoes. Towards the end, I was feeling the tubing of the sock against the insole of the shoe and felt like I had sand between the bottom of my toes and the insole, and I knew I had blisters. Oh well, lesson learned.
1st, invest in wool running, hiking socks for your walking/running/ hiking. Also, wool lifestyle socks if your work walking work day involves more than walking from the parking garage to your desk/station/work site. Save the cheap cotton socks for at home lounging/ short errands / sleeping( after moisturizing your feet). I'll get hot spot signals around the 4 mile mark. If I'm doing more than a two mile walk, I tape those hot spots in advance.
This really sucks as I have to walk almost all day and having a blister on your foot while walking is fucking painful. I’m looking at this so I can keep my job and be able to keep going to school without having so much pain.
Great video Rebecca, thank you so much. I think you create some of the best resources on the web for blister prevention and treatment.
You are really great dear :)
Great video, advice! Audio is a little poor but it does the job. Thanks!
Yeah, sorry. One of my earliest videos - still figuring things out ;)
You’re awesome. Thank you so much.
I just got back from edc Las Vegas got two blisters
I ran after my dog n got blisters but didn't stop BC I need to get my dog my when I stoped I got blisters
thanks just in time
I ran almost barefoot, just in socks on the treadmill for 20m. Haha l have a big ass blister on my left footsie.
I got mine from david goggins 45 minute workout bare foot
I haven’t been to school because of Coronavirus and about 1 hour of school it started hurting but luckily it was a half day and seeing as I can’t take off my shoes during school I had to wait for the rest of the school day to go home and I was walking home... I’m bleeding a little now but does my mum ever care and given that she’s NHS NOPE she just says suck it up and use a plaster (sometimes that woman REALLY ticks me off)
Bro your mum doesn't have to care about your feet, fix your issues, you aren't a toddler
I'm allergic to the sticky on all dressings and tape, would a roller bandage work?
Gauze pad wrapped to the site should work the same as an island dressing just not as sealed
Im walking 15+ miles multiple times a months, there is no prevention for me. I already have proper fitting boots, hiking sock & sock liners & i still get metatarsal blisters the size of fucking silver dollars. Ive always waited 24hrs then rip the fucker off because i have to be able to walk seeing as my feet are my only mode of transportation. A few drops of iodine, triple antibiotic ointment & a gauze pad.
How about just soaking in sea salt and warm water?
Yes that works too.
I just put duct tape on it and wait until it falls off on its own. There is no blister prevention for me; I'm a figure skater and I kind of have to suck it up and deal with it.
How long does it take to recover? Im a boxer and I have a week left for a fight and I have a red blister on the balls of my feet
I need a solution. Thanks for ur solution
Blisters come on fast! ...I put on a pair of tightish shoes [flat] but wore thicker socks than I usually would.. and walked for just 1hr and sure enough, my little toe now feels as if it is on fire. Very painful. the shoes were expensive, and have bought that brand before [ecco] with no problems..but this pair must have been cut that bit tighter for the same sized shoe. They felt fine in the shop. :/
me too
The slippery slope of blister treatment
I got mine from skating for 3 hours xd
The Delgados did it.
0:15 damnit.
I have had a blister for like a week, doesn't bother me, I keep walking 17-20k steps a day and it just keeps expanding😳😳
I have 6 blisters currently under both of my feet, 2 under both sets of toes and 1 on the back area of my foot and it is so painful to walk.
Sorry to hear that Benjamin. Implement the basics of great blister treatment based on your blister roof, as explained. Then to learn more about the pressure and friction management side of things, head to blisterprevention.com.au/blog/ and search for your blister location (eg: back of heel blister) and you'll find the best of the best strategies to use.

Little info here, plug for a book
My feet are soooo fucked
Anyone paying the tithe of new docs?
I got a blister because my dog kept pulling on the leash 😠
Teach the dog not to pull on the lead.
@@danielledewitt1 how?? He walks fast like if he wants to run instead but he's holding back because I'm there
@@PalmdalesAdonis Have you ever heard of training. My dog walks fast too but I don’t just let him pull because I did this thing called trained him not to pull.
@@danielledewitt1 how do you train your dog not to pull
A queen love the editing protesting hurts but it's worth it #blacklivesmatter
I have spent months studying plantar foot and found a great resource at Natural Foot Wizard (google it if you're interested)
All science, no solutions.
Correct - it takes more than 7 minutes to explain this big topic.
