| oooh I dont know but my mum sent me something yesterday saying egg whites are really good for burns - but as it's a blister Im not sure if it'd work the same... I always pop blisters but only a tiny hole in it so the liquid can come out but the skin is sitll there to go over the "wound" don't know if that's right though! |

| No popping!!!!!!! the liquid is there to protect it and keep infections out! Give it a long run under cold water to make sure it's actually stopping burning and then loosely cover it so you dont knock it. no cream though or it will stay soggy. |
