Bad Blister any good ideas?

[tazrestling27]

I have been playing golf for a little bit now, but this year I wanted to start getting competitive so I hit almost everyday. Chip and putt every other. I realized I started gripping the club to tight so now I have a blister. I do not want to stop practicing, so any good ideas besides a bandaid?

thanks

Pop that sucker and don't practice for a day or two while it heals. If there's a tournament or a situation where you're forced to play, ask your doctor if you can get a rx for Lidocaine 5% gel (or if you travel to Mexico/Central America, be sure to pick up a tube in the pharmacies there - it's non-narcotic and customs doesn't give a shit about it when you bring it back).  Anyway, that stuff will numb the area for a few hours at a clip.

or just use orajel it won't numb it out completely but it works well enough.
