This uncovered the blister ie burst it the skin flapping some covered it blister plaster and padding. But do you air it after resting or keep it covered 24/7 till 'recovered'.

Komodo Feb 2016 8:09am, 29 Feb 2016 19 posts	0 Komodo Supposedly yes... But they are expensive...I've got a huge one (blister that is!) and after compeed parted company with it at swimming pool it's doing fine on airing at night and a big plaster when wearing a shoe. To be honest I'm not how compeed could make a blister heel faster they do protect them from being aggravated by being rubbed again.
