Q: Warts Frozen -> Huge Blood Blisters (help!)
asked by: juicyspook on August 8th, 2004

Last thursday morning I had six warts frozen, leading to blistering and swollen fingers. Five of the six blisters have since filled with blood, two of which have grown ridiculously huge (3/4 of an inch at least) and are very painful. I, nor my roommates have ever seen anything like this. It seriously looks scary and disgusting like my fingers will have to be amputated or something. Friday morning I e-mailed my doctor, telling him I had huge blood blisters and asking him if I should pop them or not. He told me to leave them be. Well, this is sunday afternoon and the blood blisters have since tripled in size and the pain is much worse. One of my fingers is still very swollen and is beginning to feel numb. I've been researching the internet and all I find is that cryotherapy is painful during and for the following few hours after the freezing process. Well, that part hurt, but not nearly as bad as it hurts now. Also, all the information i've found says the blood blisters crust over and come off after two weeks and not to break them yourself. Well, all six blisters are on my hands and fingers, thus making me unable to do menial tasks that are required for me to do my job at work. I cannot go for two weeks without being able to do stuff like pull keys out of my pocket.

Help! What should I do?

This is experimental. Put neosporin on your warts, put a bag of ice on it, and sit down and relax. Warts are due to stress probably. Get some sack time, and take some days off work. Try this for one week and if it hasn't done anything, then you can yell at me. I had a wart before and I don't want to talk about it, but it went away because I relaxed quite a bit. I slept a lot, and take deep breath's. Plop yourself on the sofa and watch tv. Main point, you need to relax.

You'll be fine
Just had one frozen off myself. If you need your hands, deal with a little pain and cut the blister off. Be sure you get the wart cut off. Keep it wrapped in gauze and treated with Neosporin. Now, the sanitation is all on you. I used alcohol to sterilize the scissors and tweesers I used to cut mine off. But...rinse the alcohol off first. Burns like hell. In a couple days time, your finger will be back to normal.

i have a huge blood blister on my foot i did get the liquid nitrogen sprayed on a planter wart on my heal. i have neer had it done before.. i did have 3 warts so i go them all sprayed. well all 3 have blood blisters that are now blue and purple i have had them for 3 weeks.yes, they are very painful. you NEVER pop them it causes infection. they will burst on there own. if you pop them too soon the wart will grow right back. i know they are very painful but you have to let them be. its hard for me to walk on my foot and when im not at work or dont have to walk on my foot i dont.all you can do is know that blisters or blood blisters are normal and good to get rid of the virus.about 10 people in my family are doctors or nurses and they have all told me the same thing and that is to let it be. warts are gross looking and blood blisters are a million times worse but if you pop it yourself it will either get infected or grow right back. be patient. i hope this helped some people because it seems like me including didnt know the answer.

What i Do (100% success rating)
Cut them. ALLLL of my blisters i cut. Disinfect a knife or needle, poke into on an angle like this:

---------->/
^Knife /
Be sure to go slow and stop once you see fluid come out, i HAVE done this on blood blisters, too! Apply some disinfective, and let dry for about a week, in your case. Then, Cut off the rest by opening up the hole you already made and cutting on the edge of live, and dead (blistered) skin, and cut it all off. ONLY WHEN SKIN IS HARD, DRY, AND DEAD, otherwise it will hurt... ALOT! if its dead, you dont feel it. DO NOT PEEL, that can cause live skin to rip, and that hurts even more.

Im 100% not kidding, if done correctly, in about a month or two it will be gone, no scars!

Poke one little itty bitty hole into each blister. and use toilet paper to soak up the puss/blood. Use some anti-biotic cream and cover popped blisters with A LOT of it bandage up with some gauze pads and medical tape.

My grusome blisters
i'm lying here like a useless cripple, unable to walk or use my right hand. i'm using my little sister to type this and to research this abnormal mass growing on my hand and feet. i've had this since friday morning and it is now monday evening. they have more than trippled in size and are still very painful and look like swolen grapes! from reading the above comments i agree with samantha as it sounds the most sensibe, least painful and harmful thing to do.
