Put ice on it and keep it on until the blister skin freezes, then drain the blister by gently opening a drain with a sterile needle but do not tear the skin the frozen skin hardens and acts as a protective scab while the tissue regenerates. Then put some neosporin and a loose bandaid over for a day or three and it will be completely gone. Don't wear anything tight around it, it needs a bit of air but be sure to keep the area clean and protected from dirt and sweat. Hope this helps.

Sterilize a needle by holding it over a flame until it is red. (Don't hold it with your bare fingers. It will burn them.)
Use the sterilized needle to puncture the blister at the base of the blister. Let the fluid drain out.
Put a band aid over it for a day or two.
Keep it clean.

Pop the blister and don't be a sissy about it then let it dry out then use a band aid and some neosporin to help it heal fast without infection.

If its the size of a pencil eraser or smaller don't pop it keep it clean and dry, the fluid will be reabsorbed into the body. If its bigger than an eraser pop it with a clean needle squeeze the fluid out and put neosporin on it and cover with a bandage.

Don't pop it. Put neosporin or another antiopiotic on it to relieve the pain, then if it is small enough place a bandage over it and just let it go away naturally. If you pop it you risk infection.

Traumatizing the area ( by pricking it or forcing the fluid out) will cause a bad scar. Put an antibiotic ointment like Mupirocin which will help it in its natural healing. :)

Just cover it and keep clean-don't pop it on purpose, as that can be a great place for infection to grow.
