Suggest Treatment For Friction Blister On The Ball Of Foot
My husband has discomfort in his foot on the ball of the foot when he puts pressure on it (i.e. walking, exercising). It feels like a blister under the skin. It s about an inch in diameter and it feels firm. He is on the treadmill a lot while exercising. Any clues? Should he have it checked by a podiatrist?

Treatment for Blister is to give rest with dressing with steroid and mucipirone creams and injectable antibiotics.If i have such a patient i will advice inj augmantum cv 1.5gm iv twice a day. If no response then I will advice mycophenolate mofextil 1 to 1.5gm twice daily and prednisolone 60 to 80 mg daily. Treatment should be continued till complete cure as long treatment is required . Change your shoes wear chupals till it is cuted
