For me, I drain blisters, keep them clean and let them dry. It mostly seems to work pretty well. I think you're on the right track, and just listen to your body. And do some Googling to make sure your body isn't lying to you.

Did you get the blister running? What kind of socks do you use? Cotton will rub, while wool will wick sweat and rub less. I'm a big fan of wool socks.

It's an older SKU of UA HeatGear, which while not wool, are polyester and not cotton. Might be worth buying some wool socks, my feet were surprisingly sweaty last night and I think that combined with relatively new shoes, inserts, and the running form changes are what caused the issue.
