    Hey guys. Any treatment advice for blisters out there? I have a few on my feet after a long run today and i'll be partying later. Need some fast acting relief.

    I've never found a good treatment other than "definitely do not pop them."

    Stabbing them with the closest sharp object is key.

    Hmm ok 3-1, tried stabbing with some rusty scissors. (at my girlfriends place, women are rubbish) It hurt, I didn't go through with it, i'm a pussy. Going to leave it for tonight. The whole top of my second toe is a deep purple black, putting on shoes tonight should be painful.

    Pop them (needle or nail clippers will work...just make sure they're clean). Do not cut then skin off. Leave it as it will serve as its own bandaid. Keep your shoes off when possible so that the blisters can dry out. Buy better running shoes!
