Treating blisters with Lavender essential oil.

To treat blisters that have occured due to rubbing shoes are best dealt with by covering a piece of gauze with a few drops of Lavender essential oil.  If the blister is large it may be more comfortable to puncture it with a sterilized needle and then apply neat lavender and a gauze covering.  Myrrh essential oil added in equal drops to the Lavender is useful if the blister remains damp.

Do not cover the blister with a plaster, apply the gause with plaster strips allowing air to the blister.
