Whelp, I used the salt, I was disappointed, it didn't burn at all, though it might be because the blisters are like 2-3 days old, also, I had a hard time getting the salt to stay in there. Nonetheless I will continue using it on all blisters from here on out (using salt makes me sound tough like you Steve lol)

[EDIT] lol it started burning a little while I was typing the last message not the sweltering god save me kinda burn I was hoping for...but not bad lol good on ya Steve, what else can you use salt for? cuts? scrapes? OH THE POSSIBILITIES! lol thanks again for the idea

True, it's also efficient, I mean, why fly back to the ground when you can fall? it's faster lol

I picked a trick up off a post from cheetah, I take a Styrofoam cup and fill it with water, and the freeze it, the cup makes it be warmer on you hand since it doesn't let all the cold out and it's very easy to apply to any part of your body, just peel off the rim of the cup and run it over where it hurts, after I do all of my training for the day I ice my shins, ankles, feet, and knees with it, wake up feeling fresh as a daisy also, try doing shin raises and walking on just your heels for as long as you can stand, it'll help you to strengthen your shin muscles thereby taking much of the pressure off of your bone and finally, try barefoot running, it heals things like shin splints, jumpers knee etc. Try the pose method, it works best for me (after your first run, check out the barefoot running blisters thread, you'll thank me for it lol) Good luck with your healing, shin splints are a pain in the butt, I heard eating bananas also helps, not sure if this is true or not, but I'm trying everything to get rid of mine lol

I thought about being a go-for for a construction team, anybody have a clue what that would pay?

Okay, here's what I'm doing to treat mine. I drain the blister and cut away most of the dead skin with cuticle clippers, and then I splash some rubbing alcohol on them and put one of these on each blister (I have one on the ball of each foot) http://www.drugstore.com/qxp79971_333181_sespider/band_aid/advanced_healing_blister_cushions.htm
it works really well, it's not as hard to walk as it is with a regular band-aid, it helps heal them faster and also it's waterproof! lol I apply the alcohol 2x a day as advised by MoF

Damn, MoF's rubbing alcohol trick really does burn like hell lol I almost broke the towel bar in the bathroom lol So if you try it, find something indestructible to hold onto, personally I pushed up against the walls in the bathroom, but find what works for you lol

Wow, thanks allot, I'll be sure to try all that just as soon as I get these blisters taken care of (I tried barefoot running today).


Thanks Again! +1

I lost my editing software that came with my camera (I think my brother threw it away). Would anyone be willing to help me make a video? I can get the clips I just can't put them together. It would be greatly appreciated.

I think I may have pinpointed the cause of the pain. Does anyone know of some stretches for you feet and toes? also, do you know of anything you can do for your tendons in your feet (i.e. stretch them, exercise them etc.)?

Crap, I ran out of time for edit.
