Best Answer

A blister is a small pocket beneath the skin filled with a clear fluid called serum or plasma that is caused by friction, burns, etc. A splinter is any foreign body that becomes embedded in the skin, however, the term "splinter" usually refers to a small shard of wood that becomes accidentally stuck in the skin.
