FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. What causes blisters to form?

Blisters will appear in areas where the skin is exposed to pressure and friction over time. This usually happens when you wear new shoes for the first time, or during sports. Pressure and friction on one part of the foot cause the upper layer of the skin (the epidermis) to move back and forth over the layer beneath. A space appears between the two and fluid seeps into it. The resulting bubble is the blister.

2. What’s the best way to treat blisters?

If the blister has already formed, the area should be protected from further pressure and contamination with one of the blister plasters in the SOS Mix Pack. These are based on Hydrocolloid Technology. It creates a moist healing environment and thereby allows the wound to heal faster. At the same time, it seals and protects the area against dirt and bacteria.

3. Should I pop the blister? What should I do if it pops accidentally?

If possible, blisters shouldn’t be intentionally popped. They are there for a reason - to protect against infections. If your blister is already ruptured, the remaining skin layer should be left where it is. It’s important that the wound is protected from external contamination for fast healing without complications. The affected area should be cleaned and dried carefully before putting on a blister plaster. If the blister is already open, we recommend giving the area an extra disinfection.

4. Is it a good idea to use a healing cream underneath the Hydrocolloid Plasters in the SOS Mix Pack?

Actually, we don’t recommend using any products at all underneath the plasters. There’s a chance they may reduce their effectiveness and adhesive power.

5. When should I change the blister plaster?

To get healing off to a good start, and as long as there are no signs of infection, the plaster should be left in place until it peels off by itself. All blister plasters in the SOS Mix Pack will help to speed up the healing process. The Pressure Stop plaster offers reliable adhesion and can be worn for several days to avoid blisters.

6. How to heal blisters on your feet?

Elastoplast blister plasters help heal blisters on your feet quickly and painlessly. Clean and cover your blister, ensuring to change the plaster after 48 hours. For best results, try to avoid any further irritation to the blister area while healing.
