Should I burst the 7 huge blisters on my feet or just wait them out?

I stupidly bravely completed a 20 mile walk yesterday for breast cancer. It was great and my team raised 4.5k between us. All good.

However I have 7 huge blisters, I don't know how I am going to get shoes on for work to tomorrow - help!! All the medical websites say don't burst them!!! Any tips?

Legs have also seized up, shoulders ache from carrying my rucsac and I have a big graze on my knee from where I fell over (did sob a bit at that point).

So all in all I am a total wreck and yet pleased I finished the course. I did try to get training in but anyone who knows what we have going on right now will understand it was very hard to fit any in! Hence I am one big ouch!

Ideas and/or sympathy much apprecieted...

Am off for a 7 mile walk tomorrow morning and so know I will end up with blisters-I have feet liek a duck.Stamina is not the problem-just my bloddy ridiculous feet.
