Re: What causes a blister?

[Guest guest]

I know this has been discussed before but i wanted to know what

casuses a blister? is in the mitchell shoes 16/7 and last

night we had a horrible night. she kept waking up and she did not

need to nurse so finally at 5:oo i decided to check her feet and she

has a blister on her right foot on the side just below her big toe.

she had one on the left too but on the outside of the foot not the

inside. i put them on again and put bandaids where she had the

blisters and now i removed her shoes and they seem to be going away.

so did i just put them on wrong or to tight? or not tight enough?

i would say they may have been a little loose and her foot was able to move...

grace had that problem the first time we tried the dbb... and i ended up having

to take her back to the brace shop and a different guy showed me how to put them

on... and showed me how to press down with my thumb on the top of her foot and

make sure that her foot is flat and that will prevent any movement in the shoes

and prevent any blisters... she got such a horrible one that she still has a

scar from it... and i feel horrible every time i see it because if i had done it

right it would have never happened.. but... live and learn.. she has the dobb's

brace now and so far have not had a single problem with anything.. but i still

make sure that i get ehr foot flat and all that.... hth

Blisters are caused by some kind of friction. There doesn't have to be

much movement to cause one unfortunately. They're going away? That's

great, I hope you never see them again. Poor little girl.
