Noooooo, it will pop on its own, and when it does, wash ur hands and then wash the blistered area with a mild soap, u should also apply bacetracin(sp?) every day to keep it from getting infected.

well, you can pop it, but it isn't recommended because it will increase your chances for infection. I had a very bad sunburn a couple weeks ago and i blistered all over. most of the blisters popped just from me moving my back or leaning against something, so what I did was I popped them and then washed my back off with a clean wash rag and then put silver sulfadine on it to help cool. silver sulfadine is a anitblistering agent used mostly for burns.

HELL NO! NEVER!
whenever a blister is formed over some sort of burn or any injury it is healing the injury, so in your case when there is a blister on your burn, underneath that blister is a clear liquid that is healing the burn. Slowely but surely.

You should not. If you pop the blister, it is likely to get infected.

No. Put a bandaid and some polysporn on it to help it heal. Popping them will only lead to potential scarring and irritation.

If you go the route to burst it, be sure to mend, pamper, heal it with aloe vera jelly, vitamin E oil, and/or jojoba oil. Yes, it will leave scar, but also you'll notice how renewed your skin is. Heck, if it didn't hurt like hell, I would like to exfolicate my skin that way. I'm saying that from experience, I spilled on hot water on my foot and when the blister burst new skin was underneath.

Probably not because it may leave a scar or get worse, but then again if it's been there for more than a day it might be ok.

NO! It's natures way of protecting the tissue underneath. Be patient, it'll go away when it's ready.

don't, it's a sterile environment (inside the blister) and it's working to make your skin better, if you pop it you'll be exposing it to bacteria.

i always have to pop my blisters, but pop it with a little hole so it doesn't get infected. drain it, and then forget about it.
