Didn't hurt honest! It is very hard to get all the fluid out of a blister - I can never do it and despite putting on the plaster it still fills up again - the nurse as I say just took the skin away - good luck in whatever you decide to do - have read that if you use a needle thread it with cotton and go into the blister at one side and go out the other pulling the thread through - oh what fun!
Hi - I always have to burst mine - last time went to the hospital ( was there for something else so just popped in ( no pun intended) - all they did was rub away the skin that was forming the blister and then wrap a sterile dressing round it - told not to get it wet and within a couple of days the new skin had started to form.
