Blisters are painful and can especially hinder a jogger if they occur during a run. Blisters are likely to develop on the soles of the feet and on the toes. If you have a blister while you are running, there are ways to deal with it until you arrive at your destination.
Instructions
1. Loosen your shoes. Many times blisters are caused by ill-fitting running shoes. If your shoes are too tight, loosen the laces in order to give you more room.
2. Carry a small container of powder in your running pack. If you apply the powder to your feet, it will relieve the moisture that can cause and worsen blisters.
3. Use petroleum jelly as a lubricant for your feet. This can help you deal with the blister by preventing traction while you continue to run.
4. Bring along a blister treatment bandage. Band-Aid makes a particularly effective product called Band-Aid Advance Healing Blister. These cushions provide relief while also protecting the blister from popping.
5. Run at a slower pace. Many times running at a faster pace will irritate the blister and cause new ones to form as well.
6. Change your socks. If you have access to a new pair of socks while you are running, you should put on a new pair in order to prevent further sweating.
