hi blisters on the bunions are due to irregular walking habit due to hallux valgaus which in turn causes bunions.fungal infections are also due to same thing.treat the blood blisters by appling antibiotic cream and fungal infection is cured by phytoral ointment.
To prevent recurrences first correct bunions by buniectomy then all the blood blisters and fungal infections is subsided
