Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* The study enrollment period will run for approximately 7 days over 3 weeks throughout 2019 at Racing the Planet races in Namibia, Mongolia and Chile. All racers are potential subjects.
Subjects will be enrolled when they present to the medical tent for the treatment of their first painful blister. The subject will be evaluated for exclusion criteria and the subject will be asked to select the most painful blister to be included in the study. All other blisters may be treated through traditional means and are not included in the study.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Blister exclusion criteria:
1. Toe blisters will be excluded because they are treated with paper tape only to avoid friction against neighboring toes and further blister formation.
2. Only intact blisters are included in this study as de-roofed blisters are treated differently.
3. Hemorrhagic blisters are excluded as they are often not amenable to percutaneous drainage given the increased risk in infection.
If the most painful blister is a toe blister or a hemorrhagic blister, then the second most painful blister will be selected. If there is no second blister, the subject cannot be enrolled at this time.
