    Blister on heal
    I have started to walk everyday. I have got a large blister on my heal of my foot. Should I drain it? What should I do? I do not want to start walking.

    Don't pop it, you could get an infection. Put a band-aid over it and minimize your walking until it heals... then slowly build your distance up. Or, find a pair of shoes that fit you better.

    Not a Doctor, but have had many, Draining seems fastest. Keep clean, Neosporin or like and covered. Let air dry and open if sitting at the TV for a bit.
