Preventing toe blisters before they happen is the best advice. Using a lubricant on areas where blister can occur is one way to prevent blisters. Petroleum jelly and some sports cremes are common lubricants that can be used. Wearing socks that create less friction is also another tactic to reduce blisters.

First, try to refrain from walking on the affected toes; if you must, wear sandals with socks. Second, do NOT pop the blister: this can often cause infection. Drug stores sell cheap blister kits--this is the best way to soothe and cure them. Try those!
