Answers:
Well is it really puss or are you confusing the clear liquid for puss!?
Blisters are in high-friction areas most often!. This means that they usually end up popping on their own in your shoe or some other dirty area!.
What you can do to avoid that pain and risk of infection is use a sterilized needle to poke a TINY hole in the blister!. Immediately cover it with sterile cloth or gauze and apply pressure!. The blister will drain without the skin on the outside peeling off!. This will relieve the annoyance without the high risk of infection!. Immediately clean the area with rubbing alcohol and cover it with neosporin and band-aid!.
Do not pull off the loose skin left over from the swelling!.
Remember, this advice is /only/ if it's just clear liquid in the blister and not yellow/greenish puss!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't pop it, get a doctor too if necessary!. If it has puss in it, it likely has an infection, and by popping it, your infection will just get worse!. You should see a doctor about it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
dont touch it, let nature take its course, it will probably pop by itself very shortly
Basically the puss is all of the dead cells from whatever infection you had along with dead cells of your immune system!.
If you pop it, you could end up getting it re infected, however if it doesnt go away soon then perhaps contact your Doctor for advice!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
