Question

short note on blisters

Answer 1

The word "blister" entered English in the 14th century. It came from the Middle Dutch"bluyster" and was a modification of the Old French "blostre", which meant a leprous nodule—a rise in the skin due to leprosy. In dermatology today, the words vesicle and bulla refer to blisters of smaller or greater size, respectively.

To heal properly, a blister should not be popped unless medically necessary. If popped, the excess skin should not be removed because the skin underneath needs that top layer to heal properly.[2]

Answer 2

Blisters:

• A blister is a compact of fluid between the upper layers of the skin. The most shared causes of blisters are rubbing, freezing, burning, pollution, and certain chemical burns. Blisters are also an indication of some diseases.

• Blisters are most often instigated by skin being damaged by friction or heat. Various medical circumstances also cause blisters to appear. The injured outer layer of skin (epidermis) tears away from the layers underneath and fluid (serum) collects in the space to make a blister.
