![]() ![]() If you feel at any time feverish or pus comes from any blister (blisters should all be full of clear liquid only) or if you see red streaks along arm, or if blisters smell bit bad, seek help. Do NOT put Vaseline or skin cream on arm. It will protect the new skin which if forming beneath.Įxpressly do NOT tightly bind arm, or use paper towel as bandage or bandage pad, the fibres will stick to the wound and increase likelihood of infection. Avoid bursting further blisters, but expect them to burst. Also buy polysporin or other antibiotic ointment. At the first opportunity go and buy the proper bandages at the pharmacy. Take asprin tablets not for pain, but to reduce swelling. I don't suppose I have to tell you to rest the arm. Keep the area loosely covered with the cleanest cloth you have. Also, as stated before I am not covered whatsoever by medical insurance, what could be just a scar could turn into a bill I can not afford.Įdit again: I've never popped any blister. What the HELL should I do? I don't want the arm to become infected.Įdit: I was cooking at home when it happened, not at work. I have no wrap, and only access to the basic things a person would have. I came home from work today, and after unwrapping and letting my arm "breathe" for about an hour, one of the blisters popped and I'm afraid of infection. ![]() I've had my arm wrapped and sanitized for the last 2 days because my work provides a minimal burn first aid box. It did not hurt as much as I thought, and the blisters showed up the next day. First and minor second degree burns, but it looks like hell. and caused about 5 long blisters and a number of other smaller ones. It was a hot oil burn due to cooking at home. >!insert spoiler here!< Other subreddits you might like: some Mod posts Serious posts Megathread Breaking news Unfilter Please use spoiler tags to hide spoilers.
