What is a "blister"?
A blister is a small, fluid-filled bump on the skin. It forms when the outer layer of the skin becomes damaged, often due to friction, burns, or irritation. The fluid inside the blister helps protect the damaged skin and promote healing. Blisters can vary in size and may be painful or itchy. They usually heal on their own within a few days as the body reabsorbs the fluid and the skin underneath repairs itself. Avoiding further irritation and keeping the blister clean can help prevent infection and promote faster healing.
