How do you soothe a blister?
A blister hurts the worst when the raw skin contacts air. If the blister has popped, try to remove the loose skin and then put some cream or antibacterial ointment on it and cover it with a bandage (band aid). Keep covered for a few days, replacing bandage when needed. If the blister has not popped, you need to pop it but in a way you may find difficult. Take a sterilized needle and insert it in healthy skin (not affected by the blister) just outside the blister going under the blister to make a hole. After the hole is made via under the blister, squeeze all the fluid out through the hole. This will prevent the raw skin from contact with the air preventing added pain. You may need to do this a few times a day if the blister refills with fluid, but there should be no reason to cover with a bandage unless to prevent wearing against something. This should heal in a few days and the top skin of the bubble can dry and come off.

Is it better to pop a blister or leave it be and why?
it is better to cut it open and relieve the fluid from inside. The majority of pain comes from the pressure on the nerve endings. Once you cut the blister open, you need to pull all the loose skin off and then allow a fan to blow on the new skin. The new skin will be tender for a while but it will relieve the pain on the blister.
Why should you not prick any blister on your skin?
Blisters should not be pricked unless they are painful. Basically, a blister is when the top layer of skin is damaged, and your body's reaction is to "replace" the skin with new skin. You'll notice that the blister is filled with liquid if you puncture it, and that's because the water helps the new layer of skin "develop". The new layer skin is vulnerable and opening up the blister during the healing process opens up the wound area to infection and can slow the process.
