Hell Blister Treatment...

[Vitals]

How do you guys deal with blisters on your heel? I was wearing my Timberlands while working today and developed a wicked blister. It seems like leaving it be is the best way for it to heal. Popping it and treating it would be the best way if you needed to put boots on right away....Not sure what to do about this little SOB

Large Patch of Steril Pad held on with Tape. or wear shoes or boots that dont have a heel for a few days. For future since you know these are still breaking in. Throw some Mole skin on the heel or use Sock liners so your slip is from insert to the sock instead of heel to the sock. =) I wouldnt pop it. You can get an infection that way.

mole skin and duct tape . or just duct tape, but the mole skin taped on will feel like theres no blister at all. I had to do this on a elk hunt one time, 5 mile hike with a blister on my right heel the whole time. only time I felt anything was when I took the tape off

I've heard the mole skin can be tricky to keep on. I have used it a few times in sports but I don't really remember how I kept it on. Do you just cover the entire piece of mole skin with a piece of duct tape?

Just as littlebuf said cover the moleskin with a good sized piece of duct tape.

Yes cover it all with duct tape. I've used just tape before but using mole skin takes the pressure off the blister if its already formed

Yeah putting just tape seems like it would SUCK taking off.
