More than you ever wanted to know about BLISTERS
Okay, so I am dealing with blisters on my heels for the first time I can remember. (I wasn't too active up to this point). I joined the gym and am having a blast until the dreaded Blister.
First, let me introduce you to the cause of the problem. My new shoes (which I really liked before they decided to rub me the wrong way - hehe).
They are from New Balance and are actually pretty comfy. I paid $35.00 for them at TJ MAX. I am not going to hold this against them for long - everyone needs a second chance.
My blister is not too pretty. I got it last week - and haven't been able to do the treadmill because of it. The picture was taken today, I think 5 or 6 days after it showed up.
So, thanks to everyones suggestions, I went to Walgreens to see if they had Band-Aids for Blisters and they did! I bought them and a Blister Block Stick. It is supposed to slick up your heel so that there is no friction, thus, no blister.
I tried them today and was able to workout like normal. It still felt a little tender, but it was do-able.
The Band-Aid Blister Covers were $4.99 and the Band-Aid Blister Block was $6.99. I would suggest them to everyone - I wished I would have known about them before the "incident"
