Hi, Blisters on the soles of the feet are a serious proposition. If they are small and few in number you can use a product from the pharmacy for burns. This will relieve the pain until they heal. Talk directly to a Pharmacist for the best product.

Do not pop the blisters. Let them absorb naturally. If they are medium to larger sized or there is more then just a couple go to the Doctor. They have special ointment for burns.

Monitor the burns for any signs of infection such as colored drainage, increased redness, fever, increased warmth or increased pain. See a Doctor immediately if you suspect an infection.

Keep clean white cotton socks on over clean bandages. Change bandages and socks daily until areas have reabsorbed. Stay off your feet if at all possible. Take Tylenol or ibuprofen for any pain or discomfort.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

How do I treat blisters? do not open them! let them alone and protect them for a few days the tough outer skin will protect thses blisters with a fluid that keeps them from getting infection in the blister if you were to open it. if opened then the fresh inside skin could pick up an infection and the best way to treat blisters on the soles of your feet is to bath the feet in cool water soaks in a small tub . and let the feet soften up and then soak in a vinegar water soak half cup vinegar to gallon of water to toughen the feet up and this will toughen them up so as to not break open the blisters and expos them to infections. soak them 2 to 3 times a day like this and you will feel relief and wear clean soaks and shoes for the next few days .
