Is it ok to pop a blood bubble?

I just noticed I have a blood bubble on my pinky finger, I have never had one before. I don't know what I should do with it. Should I pop it, or see a doctor, or what?Is it ok to pop a blood bubble?
pop it
Leave it ALONE! The body will reabsorb the blister in time. Popping it invites possible infection.Is it ok to pop a blood bubble?
Had one before on the fingertip of the index finger. Waited for the blood to be reabsorbed by the body. In the meantime, the pain was excruciating whenever the blood bubble was touched.



The pain became a hindrance that I decided to pop it with a pin wiped well with alcohol. Removed the semi-coagulated blood, washed the area well with soap and water, applied a dab of tea tree oil (antiseptic, antibacterial, antifungal property) and within a day the site felt much better.



The site healed well, with no scarring.





Please think about this: how many people had papercuts, or blisters from tight-fitting shoes, but never had infections? A lot.
No, it can get infectedIs it ok to pop a blood bubble?
if it hurts, then pop it, the pain is from all the pressure.
If it were me, I wouldn't pop it. The blood will be reabsorbed by your body, and your skin is a natural band-aid.
pop it cause if u dont it will just stay there. i have one on one of my fingers now from dropping a weight on it. my mom works for a hospital and she said it will just stay there
