Blister/blood blister?


I am sure I am just freaking out. But almost 3 weeks ago I got a bad cut/puncture between my big toe and little toe. It start to get infected, so I took really good care of it. I also developed a rash. Well it finally started getting better about a week ago. But then I developed a blister on my toe next to the wound ( which isn't to big of a deal because I always get blisters because I am a runner).

But today I notice there is dark spots in the blister. Is it just a blood blister.. or could my infection from my cut still be going on???

Probably a blood blister. I wouldn't worry too much about it. If it doesn't go away in a couple of weeks then you should probably see a doctor.

I think the dark spots are where the blood is drying up under your blister. hence the blister is healing.

follow up with your doctor or podiatrist.

if it was infected it would hurt really bad. just watch it.
