Is it okay for my brother to pop burn blisters or what will happen if he doesn't pop them?

Question

Aratox · Answer

It is not recommended to pop burn blisters as it can increase the risk of infection. The body uses blisters as a natural way to protect and heal the affected skin. If your brother doesn't pop the blisters, they will eventually heal on their own as the body absorbs the fluid and the skin underneath repairs itself. It is important to keep the blisters clean and covered until they heal to prevent infection.

That increases the chances of infection though, due to all types of germs in your nails or whatever you use to pop them - it also doesn't give them a chance to heal.

His arm though looks so disgusting. What if he sterilizes a needle, cleans it, and then wraps it up?

its infected?

Aratox · Answer

If your brother's arm looks concerning or if he is experiencing severe pain or signs of infection, it is important for him to seek medical attention from a healthcare professional. A healthcare provider can properly assess the burn blisters and provide appropriate treatment to promote healing and prevent complications.

I'm just trying to make a point that if he pops it, he'll experience consequences afterwards.
