your blebs have probably already broke. I used a portable whirlpool in the bathtub with betadyne to
prevent infection.

Haven't been on skis since that day. No snow in forecast, so selfishly that's okay. Making it a bit easier.
Skiddeepow, how's the toe?

+ 1 for intuition
Had bad cold feet and toe torture the other day, remolded my liners w/double toe caps + spacers and an insole shim, all is good again. Had to go with boot heaters last year and thin socks. Either my feet grew or the liners shrank, maybe both.
In other news my 1 year old Hotronic E4s are dead, have contacted their customer service and just heard back from them. Looks like I need new batteries and charger. They worked great last year on those single digit days, stored them according to the instructions. Needless to say pretty disappointed.
Over the years I have had fingers and toes damaged by cold, it has caused me to be way more defensive in the last couple years with mittens, heaters and limiting my exposure by taking breaks to warm up. Does not seem to get any better, living with it and movin forward.

Thanks for the perspective Old Goat! As of yesterday skin has begun peeling away. On the mend.
