Anyone have any recommendations if there is a recommended pharmacy here to treat our blisters. So many to choose from....(pharmacies not blisters). Have switched shoes. Switched socks. Changed lacing techniques and done everything to prevent....but the steep descents got us. Thanks! In Pontevedra for a rest day.

Sorry to hear about the blisters.The standard of quality of Spanish pharmacies is very high so I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.
Take into consideration that it is Saturday today so maybe limited hours or closed in the afternoon.
In a town like Pontevedra one or two will be " Farmacia de Guarda " and therefore open.

Of course I am not sure if they will treat your blisters ( if that is what you were asking ? ) but at least they will give you very good advice and all the material you need.

All the best!
