Oozing Fluid
After a short while, the blisters formed in stage two are ready to burst and expel fluid from inside. The contents of the fever blister will erupt and eventually, the blisters will form into painful sores. The majority of blisters are filled with clear fluid.
If a blister becomes inflamed or infected, it can fill with blood. This is where the term blood blisters originates from. The role of the fluid under the surface of the blister is to protect tissue from further damage.2‘Blisters: Causes, Treatment, Prevention.’ Cleveland Clinic, my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/16787-blisters
