Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is normal for a blister and swelling to appear after cryotherapy. It will take around 7 to 10 days to settle. Meanwhile you can apply a topical steroid and antibiotic like Cortisone cream and Neosporin ointment on the affected areas twice daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
