I would suggest you do not burst the blister as while the blister is in tact it is sterile if you burst it then there is an avenue for infection to get in.RA ans infection dont mix.Hope this helps.
The advice would be not to burst the blister. the fluid in a blister has formed for protection. I am a nurse and we would never burst a blister caused by friction which it seems this is. I would suggest you put a padding on it to protect
just leave it padded and the fluid will reabsorb over a couple of weeks. It would be worth padding the brace tp prevent it rubbing. did you get the brace from a physio or occupational therapist, if you did they should reassess it.
i agree dont burst that blister its protecting somthing
when you use those you wshould not keep them on all the time when you stop for coffe or any length of time undo it and wearing it all the time will weaken your knee if the knee is not that bad sometimes and dosnt need the support put it in your pocket just in case.
sometimes i use a bandage type just to give some support if its a bad day
A great remedy for blisters are the blister plasters that Compeed, Scholl, Boots and others make for blisters on feet. They're actually hydrocolloid plasters, which is the stuff developed to heal pressure sores originally and they do an amazing job very safely.
