doooooooooooooooooooooont pop it... no matter how tempting it is.

p.s.

hope your hair is better
 
whenever i get blisters from playing my bass, i spray a little aftershave on it. Hurts like hell for a couple minutes then it's all numb(y)
 
Yeah take 1 hot needle/pin and pretend your blister is a pin cushion. Get rid of all the fluid and leave it.
 
If you can, leave the blister intact, then nature runs it's course. NHSDirect says,
"Try to keep blisters intact to avoid infection. Unbroken skin over a blister provides a natural barrier to infection. Never pierce the blister with a needle, but allow the blister to break on its own.
When the blister bursts, you may need to cover the area with a dry, sterile dressing to protect it from infection until it heals. Blood blisters should also be left to heal of their own accord. They are often painful, and you may wish to apply a cold pack straight after the injury. As with normal blisters, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, and protect it with a sterile bandage to prevent infection."

I get them quite a lot because I play bass too. I used to pop them and have never found this a problem except the initial pain. It did feel awkward to play the bass after it though so I just wrap it a bit when playing.

I'm like other Gaz, can't resist the urge to play with them. lol

Wonder who originally wrote that? Have they tried to write essays when you have blisters on your fingertips? Flaming hard to do.
