Blister on the bottom of my foot from walking barefoot on hot ground?
It's summer here in New Zealand and today I walked to the shops with my friend in bare feet. It was a very hot day and my feet got burnt and now there is a big blister about 1cm below my 2nd toe on the bottom of my foot. It is very painful to walk on. Can anyone give me some tips on how to make this not hurt anymore and to make it go away? Thanks. P.S Not walking is not an option as I have school. If it's filled with water you can make a tiny hole on the side with a disinfected needle to let the water out, then bandage it, but leave the layer of skin as the skin underneath it will heal better that way. And yes, the other suggestion would be "Don't walk as much" - let it rest to heal, so you can continue walking barefoot as soon as it heals. icnu | Read more A 3 foot high tsunami?!?!? I just heard about the 8.9 earthquake that rocked Japan i think it was last night :( those poor people But while reading i heard about the entire West coast of North America would be hit as well as Chile, New Zealand and a few others. On one news site it said the Phillipenes would be hot by a 3 ft tsunami. . At first i thought they meant 30 ft but it was a typo but on other news sites it was the same information. Im not tryingg to be all rude but what the hell??? I thought tsunamis were huge wages ive expierenced 5 even 8 ft waves . Can someone please explain because i dont really understand thanks A regular wave might be 8 feet high, but only 25 feet from front to back. So it goes up the beach only about 75 feet (most of which is under water already). A tsunami that is 3 feet high could be many 100's of feet from front to back, and go inland over 1000 feet. It's not just the height of the wave, it's the total volume. Morningfox | Read more Pale skin that doesn't burn? I'm Pale blonde with a hint of ginge and blue eyes, i have freckles and my legs look like cornbeef in the cold. I have that sort of skin which SHOULD burn. I grew up being cautious of the sun and being smothered in sunblock as soon as the clouds cleared up. The odd thing is that I don't burn. I have just come back from 6months in New Zealand and enjoyed the hot summer and the holes in the ozone layer without using sun lotion once. I don't tan very well either, get a bit of colour but nothing major. When I tell people I don't burn they think im lying or crazy or something. Then they spend a day in the sun with me and are utterly baffled that i havn't turned into a lobster. I don't know anyone else lilly white who can sit in the sun all day and not end up looking like a ripe tomatoe. Is this normal or do I have some sort of freakish skin disorder? I would feel a bit silly going to the doctor about something like this. My skin always feels cold too other people and like I said before I have this weird mottled corn beef thing going on in the cold. My hands and feet also go reddish purple if they get slightly cold. I also have a fairly high pain thresh hold but bruise very easily. I have been like this for aslong as I can remember. Anyone come across this before? You will still be susceptible to developing skin cancer, so you will need to be thankful for lack of pain, and extra cautious because you don't have that warning. "Just kidding" I think Superman had the same problem. Can you see through things, start fires with your eyes, or lift heavy objects? OzoneGuy | Read more Weird but true facts?
