Suggest Remedy For Blisters In Foot
My daughter came home from playing baseball all day with a blister on the bottom of her foot. The blister was popped and 2 red lines are coming from it towards her leg. I cleaned it out put on polysporin and covered it. I also marked the lines with a pen to see if they are getting bigger.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have blisters in foot . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like sun burn , fungal infection , bacterial infection , allergic reaction or frictional blister . I would suggest you to keep your foot clean and dry , do not wear socks or shoe , apply over the counter antibiotics cream and also apply ice compresses several times a day . If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may order certain test along with physical examination to check the tenderness and consistency . Doctor may prescribe oral anti bacterial or anti fungal depending upon the diagnosis . Doctor may also prescribe salicylic acid for keratinisation .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
