Answers:
Always leave blisters be, they are there for a reason- to protect the new skin that's growing underneath!. It depends on how deep the burn is to whether it will scar or not!. A light burn from a cooking pot should not leave a scar, whilst a deep, nasty burn from a full on fire will probably leave bad scarring!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

DO NOT POP IT!!! Leave it alone!! If you pop it you open it up to infection! Oh and for christ sakes do not do as some other people have stated and put mustard, butter,!.!.!. or any other kind of food product on it!. cover with a dry sterile dressing, and let your body do what it does best: heal, and take care of itself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Poping a burn blister is extremly painful!.!. It will also be open for infection!. If it is new, then put cold mustard on it from the fridge!. Or you can put some Alo Vera on it !. To sooth the pain!. Good LuckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Let it dry out on it's own!. The blister is a pillow to protect the area underneath that is damaged!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
