My baby had recently outgrown his size 3 shoes, and I didn't realize it. When I took those shoes off him, he had a huge blister going from the top of his big toe all the way to the ball of his foot. It's starting to turn really red/purple now, and I don't know if that's because it's infected or what. Should I keep it clean and covered, or let the blister get some air and take it's course (and possibly not stay clean)????????

keep it clean and dry, and don't put shoes on your baby for a while, just socks. If it is cold you can put a soft slipper type shoe on him. Please try to pay more attention to your baby, as his feet will continue to grow rapidly.

Don't pop it. A blister is natures band aid, and the liquid inside is nature healing medicine. Whe it dries, it will peel naturally and then the skin underneath will be healed.

dont pop blisters as it can cause scaring. leave them to go down of there own. if you think anything is infected go to your doctors
