My feet are very happy right now yet I want to be prepared to care for them well if need be. Is there a "blister kit" available in the U.S. that contains all that I will need?

Compeed is wet wound technology, so it absorbs the moisture coming from an open blister. With a lot of moisture, it will come off, and you will need to apply a new one. The absorbed moisture forms a gel, which gives a protective cushion. A blister on the ball of the foot is a tough one to treat, by the way.If there is a lot of moisture compeed will not last long
These or specialist patches made for leg ulcers and weeping wounds - I think the first farmacia you will come across after Hontanas is in Castojeriz. Get their advice. Until you get there I would pad and tape it. Compeed won't hurt for a short distance but is not going to fix it IMO.My husband had a blister in the same spot on both feet that would not heal and created a lot of discomfort until someone suggested he go to a farmacia and ask for vendajes de plata made by hansaplast. These are silver iodine band aides. Once he started using these, the blisters cleared up quickly. Good luck!
