Friction Blisters

Friction Blisters

Skin irritation

Cause

Friction from shoes or clothing repeatedly rubbing against skin, causing the outermost layers to separate from the inner layers. Lymph fluid fills the area between separated skin, causing local discomfort or pain.

Signs and Symptoms

Fluid filled blisters can present as irritated or raised portions of the skin, and may be associated with any of the following signs or symptoms;

  • Rash
  • Itching
  • Joint pain

Recovery

By reducing pressure and friction, blisters can recover and be prevented. Proper shoe fit is key to eliminating blister formation.
