This separation creates a blister (blister) fluid of tissues. This liquid functions as a bag and protects it, in some way, the wound. The blister can be painful and can burst, with the risk of infection.

If, however, you receive the blister, then your options are limited:
– First of all, cover the blister right away once you experience the characteristic pain.
– If you can stand, break the blister with a sterile needle to remove the liquid, and disinfect with alcohol or betadine.

– It is understood that the sea is the best medicine, because, as they say, the older, salt nourishes the wound!
