Horrible Blister

I was cooking bacon this morning in the oven. When I went to get the bacon out of the over the pan slipped and hot bacon grease spilled on my leg. It got on my thigh and hurt so bad. I put aloe lotion on it all day long and soaked in cold water and wrapped it up. Well earlier tonight I took the wrap off and I have a huge nasty blister now. I can't even stand to look at it. It's so disgusting! Now I'm terrified that the blister is going to pop. Right now it doesn't hurt unless I hit my leg on something. But I just know it would be terribly painful to have that pop.
What do you think I should do to keep my blister from popping? And what should I do to keep my leg from scarring from this? Anyone have any helpful tips to share with me?
I'm just trying to wear really loose clothing right now and avoid touching it at all costs.

As for the moment, you just have to leave it until it will get dried. I advised that you take a bath everyday, so that the bacteria will be washed out.
If it is so severe, then placing some topical lotion to your burns would be of great advantage as what you are doing right now.
Have a nice day and God speed!

I am very sorry to hear about your accident.
I am sure that you must have been in alot of pain.
I have found vitamin E to be very helpful for burns.
But, it sounds like your burn is very severe.
Perhaps you should consider seeing a doctor?
Be well.
