I've got a blister on my hand from shoveling the barn out yesterday!. Should I leave it be or should I pop it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It depends!. If you have to work again soon you should pop it so it wont hurt!. Get a needle and sterilize it with alcohol or by holding over a lit match!. Poke the blister from the side and then drain the puss out!. Then wash your hand and put a band aid on it!. Dont worry it doesnt hurt I do it all the time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should leave it because popping a blister can introduce lots of bacteria into the wound, which can result in an infection!.
If it's really bothering you that much and you want to pop it you need to make sure you clean it very well with antibacterial soap and ointments and make sure nothing gets into it until it properly heals!.
But I would suggest leaving it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Leave it, once it pops you have a chance of getting an infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Leave it!.
