Place a piece of foam over the irritated area. You can get low profile, mid density foams at pharmacies or medical supply stores. A small square will protect the tender region without being too bulky or obstructive in the skate.





You see a lot of the pros using these pink or green foams to help with the skate bite pains that invariably occur over a long season.
Reply:High quality socks.





If your cotton socks (you are wearing socks, right??) aren%26#039;t doing it, try something that will create more of a friction barrier between your boot and your foot.

If you%26#039;re not wearing socks, that%26#039;s why you%26#039;re getting blisters.





Plus... not wearing socks will make your skates stink.
Reply:I know they heat up the actual skates for a custom fit. Maybe take them to were you got them and see if they will do that for your Rollerblades.
Reply:What part of the ankle?





Something is rubbing the area causing the blister to form. You may have the roller blades too tight.





If this pressure continues to happen, a callus will form, which will provide a more permanent protection.





You might want to take a few days off, and let the blister dry out and turn into a callus.





You could also try putting a band aid over, let the blister break, and keep a band aid over the rupture. Clean and re-band aid frequently.





It will eventually turn into a callus which will fix the problem.
Reply:This is easy to fix. First off always long socks, always. Next get your, Mom, sis or girlfriend to buy you a package of makeup sponges. The flat or round ones. Not the triangles. They can easily fit under your sock and be a soft buffer between your skate and foot. I have used this when I had problems as well as everyone on my team. This is a figure skater trick. They sell the pads in the pro shop but you pay like five bucks for what will cost a little over a buck in the grocery store. Good. Luck.
Reply:maybe look at the area where you feel the pain on the inside of the skate, if it is sharp or exposed, try putting a layer or two of hockey tape on it to cover it up.
Reply:Ok the idiot below me dosent know what they are saying. I have over 30 years experience of hockey. I would of made the draft but unfortantly i broke my ankle and that was the end of my career.








Ok that problem is easy to fix. If you are wearing short socks thats a problem. You dont need quality socks, you need %26quot;tube socks%26quot; known as long or high socks. If not, loosen up the skate a little and if that dosent work chances are the skates are too small. RBK rollerblades are very good though.
Reply:^^^ Thats what I did. My moms a nurse so she has access to foam pads and gauze so she%26#039;d bring them home for us if we had that problem. I did have that problem with my old skates. We%26#039;d cut a small piece of the foam, stick it over the blister or the part that was rubbing and then I%26#039;d wrap it with sticky gauze. It works wonders. And when you skate, you can barely tell the padding is there. Try it, it works.
