How do you take a blister off?
Well I take my blisters of by poking it with a needle or something sharp and then just let it pop. Beleive me it works and it doesn't hurt.
How do you get rid of a blister on my finger?
You get a needle and hold it over a candle or fire and when it gets really hot pop the blister. The heat is to get the needle sterile. If the blister is in a high-use location, like inside the hand, you can prevent it from tearing open later by inserting the sterilized needle BESIDE the blister and coming up from the underside into the blister, then squeezing the blood or fluid out that way. The top layer of skin lays flat and can actually bond back together instead of splitting open. Good luck!

Is it better to pop a blister or leave it be and why?
it is better to cut it open and relieve the fluid from inside. The majority of pain comes from the pressure on the nerve endings. Once you cut the blister open, you need to pull all the loose skin off and then allow a fan to blow on the new skin. The new skin will be tender for a while but it will relieve the pain on the blister.

How do you treat burns on the bottom of your feet?
The best treatment is prevention. You should have well fitting boots, break them in with shorter walks and hikes before going on long hikes and wear good thick socks (sometimes more than one pair). You should regularly check your feet for red irritated areas (called "hot spots") and place moleskin over them before they form a blister. A small, unbroken blister [less than 1 in. (2.5 cm) across], even a blood blister, will usually heal on its own. Do not try to break the blister. "The best bandage is intact skin". Just leave it alone and uncovered if you will not be continuing to put pressure on it (i.e. if you are done hiking). If you will continue to rub it, i.e if you have more hiking to do, the best treatment is to apply a doughnut shaped piece of moleskin to it. If you do not have moleskin you can use a band-aid type of bandage. Do not wrap tape completely around a hand, arm, foot, or leg because it could cut off the blood supply if the limb swells. Some people like to put a plastic bag in the boot to help the foot slide and reduce friction. This might work but my personal opinion is that it is not as comfortable and makes it so that the boot does not breath which makes your foot drenched with sweat and in many ways worse due to the skin getting macerated. If the blister does break wash your hands and the affected area with soap and water as blisters can easily become infected. If you have a large blister that is likely to pop open on its own you may want to drain it, depending on where it is, to reduce the size of the open wound. Clean a needle with rubbing alcohol or soap and water, then use it to gently puncture the edge of the blister. Press the fluid in the blister toward the hole you made. Wash the blister after you have drained it, and pat it dry with clean gauze. Do not remove the flap of skin covering the blister unless it tears or gets dirty or pus forms under it. If the blister has just a small puncture or break, leave the flap of skin on and gently smooth it flat over the tender skin underneath. Apply an antibiotic ointment, such as polymixin B or bacitracin, if you are not allergic to it. The ointment will prevent the bandage from sticking to the blister and may help prevent infection. Do not use alcohol or iodine on the blister because these may delay healing (they are toxic to the skin as well as the bacteria). Loosely apply a bandage or gauze. Secure the bandage so the tape does not touch the blister. If the skin under the bandage begins to itch or develops a rash, stop using the antibiotic ointment. Change the bandage every day and any time it gets wet or dirty. You can soak the bandage in cool water just before removing it to make it less painful to take off. If possible, avoid wearing the shoes or doing the activity that caused the blister until the blister heals.
