5 Home Remedies For Blisters

Blisters can happen often but they are easy to fix and heal. Here are 5 home remedies to help you with that.

  1. Let’s start with prevention: Make sure your shoes fit properly and are not too tight. Blisters typically occur from friction from a tight fitting shoe.

  2. Use a Band-Aid: Cover your blister to reduce and protect the irritation and contact. You can even add a small cotton ball between the sticky parts of the Band-Aid for extra cushion.

  3. Apply aloe vera gel to help reduce redness and swelling.

  4. Use caster oil: Apply it with a cotton ball or pad to help heal the blister.

  5. Lastly, you can use a sanitized pin to pop and drain the blister. Be sure to cover it up with a Band-Aid after you do this to avoid infections. Blisters can happen often but they are easy to fix and heal.
