Leave it alone for now. You are 100% overdoing it.
True!
Applying ICE as we speak it should be gone two to three weeks hopefully.

Wait for it to pop on its own. Speed it up with some compression heat.
Blisters are a part of the healing process of the skin. You should never "pop" a blister. Reduce the vaccum/pressure in the future after this have heald up, and keep yourself to SRT 5X5X3, and/or start to pump with water. How long where you inside the pump?I’m curious what would happen if I continued to pump with the blister will it eventually pop in the tube or do I have to stop completely again?
I think it would be worth a try to see if it helps you sometimes. Water pumping is better than air pumping and may cause less blisters.Thanks @DLD
Since I like pumping at higher pressures because I feel like I get a better stretch do you think water pumping with the mityvac might prevent blisters in the future compared to dry pumping with lubricant?
I have never got any blisters with water pumping (Bathmate). And I was on the brink of pure panic mode (to much vacuum) all the time.I think it would be worth a try to see if it helps you sometimes. Water pumping is better than air pumping and may cause less blisters.

I don't recommend you to be at this edge of to much.
Great news!Just FYI the blister popped on its own I say in one more week I should be fully recovered.
Oh man I'm sorry.
You should not pop blisters. It's a part of the heqling process.They protect the skin that are damaged.
Get some basatracin on there every day until fully healed
I feel your pain, (my over-pumping has caused blisters on the glans a handful of times...each time I pop it with a sterilized xacto knife. Not for the squeamish). I've found the liberal use of organic coconut oil has helped, (and it cleans-up much easier than the petrolium-based lubricants).
Just for context, I use my VacuVin modded Bathmate each morning in the shower for about 15 minutes, hang about 6-7 lbs for 30 minutes in the evening and another 30-45 minutes in the MityVac.
Keep up the good work!
I understand. I was referring to post #714.I didn’t pop it. The skin feel off after two three days. Now it’s raw brother
similar and it was only 3-4 days before I could resume PEDid you ever have one like mine above and how long did it take to heal?
I get it...but I figured over the years the many blisters on my feet/hands that I've popped w/out issue, so I just went for itYou should not pop blisters. It's a part of the heqling process.They protect the skin that are damaged.
