How can you tell if your blister is healing well?

Asked by Moegitto (2310points) October 17th, 2011

I got a blister (finally) from walking on the treadmill. It started to hurt, so I had to pop it (using a sterile poker, small hole on the side). It’s been about a couple of days since then. I’ve used peroxide to purge infection (No white fizz pops up, first good sign), then an alcohol pad to wipe after I wipe off the peroxide, then some neosporin, then finish with a anti-scar bandaid. There’s hasn’t been any pus forming, and some parts of the area are getting harder (not rock hard, but they don’t feel like loose skin.). The area isn’t becoming red or anything, but I’m becoming an impatient kid waiting to be able to stop babying this blister/bubble/annoying spot.
