New Shoes for Blisters

Blisters are small sacks of fluid between the upper layers of skin. Commonly caused by the rubbing of ill-fitting shoes on the feet, blisters may also be caused by other forms of friction, burns, infection, chemical exposure or freezing. Blisters are usually filled with a clear fluid, though if infected, they may fill with pus.

New Shoes to Prevent Blisters

Method

  • Make sure you buy high-quality, properly fitted shoes. Those who spend a great deal of time on their feet, especially hikers and runners, should purchase their shoes at a store with a fitting expert.

Why It Works

When shoes do not fit properly, they tend to constantly rub the skin on the foot. This continuous friction produces painful blisters. The best way to prevent blisters is to make sure your shoes fit well.

Precautions

None.
