You can go to the local pharmacy and buy "corn pads" They are an adhisive foam pad with a hole in the center. place this over the blood blister so that the blister is in the hole. This will help keep the pressure off of it.

take a sterilized needle and prick the blister to let the blood out of the blister. This will ease the throbbing or pressure behind the blister. Be sure to proxide it once you pop it. takes about a week for the blister to go away .
good luck

nothing. Let it do it's thing. If you pop it you run the risk of introducing bacteria.. right now it's a sterile environment. I know, lotsd of people do pop them with few consequences, but first aid procedure says to leave it, cover if neccesary.

No need to pop it. I had one in the same spot. Eventually, it turned into a scab and then I picked it. No biggie.
