How To Get Rid Of Blisters On Stomach?

Okay so I was so stupid and did the salt and ice challenge. I did it on my stomach. I did it yesterday and when I woke up this morning it was all blistery. It hurts so bad I told my friends I went to a doctors about it but I don t want to go to one. So how can I treat it myself?

Hello,

I understand your concern for blisters on abdomen.

It may be due to infection or other causes such as trauma or related cause.

In my patients I suggest them to apply an antibacterial cream such as Mupirocin few days.

I also sugest my patients to take a course of antibiotic such as cefixime or related antibiotic for few days along with pain killer taelts. I also suggest to not to pinch, pop or squeeze any area on the blisters. Do not apply any creamy or oily stuff or any other cosmetics over blisters. Avoid any home remedies suggested by your friends or family members or otherwise self implicated therapies also.

Do not apply any other medicated cream without medical supervision. Avoid situations of direct continuous friction for long hours.

All the best.
