How Can An Infected Blister On The Knee Be Treated?

I obtained a blister two days ago and it seems to be infected. It was exposed to a new soil and grass treatment and I am having pain not because of the blister but in my foot and it is spreading from my ankle to my shin. It is now above the knee. Do I need to go to an urgent care facility or just keep cleaning it?
