What Medication Cures The Blisters On The Foot?

Hi, I applied hot water pack on my ankle to relieve some pain but the water was hot and it has turned into a pebble size blister. What ointment can I use to get rid of it ? I prefer not to operate it out. Its white in color. I have silverx ointment at home. Please advice. Thanks. Ram.

Hi.
As per your case history you are having hot water burn.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesion as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for 5-7 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics like cefadroxil and azithromycin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
