I hear its not a good idea to pop/release the liquid in the the bubble on your own let it do it naturally I assume so it heals properly its a decent size about 3/4 inch long on my finger and Im just wondering how long I should wait if it doesnt burst on its own because its very annoying since it buldges outwards of my finder and is sensitive when applying pressureHow long will it take for the bubble (from my burn) to burst/pop?
If it's bad, you can pop it with a sterilized needle, and then use antiseptic cream and bandage it up. I had a nurse do it for me when I had a blister like a grape on the end of my finger. It was pulsing red like in a cartoon, no kidding.
The transparent liquid inside the blister is called serum (composed mainly of blood plasma) and generally it protects the soft skin underneath the blister, that's why it is best to leave it alone if possible. If however like you say it's becoming an annoyance then it can be popped, so long as you treat the wound like a burn and keep it covered.
