It is the 'ontlasten' I am wondering about.
I suppose this might cover drainage but maybe other things also?
Thanks for suggestions.

drain bullae with a sterile syringe
perhaps
If your bulla or blister needs to be drained, you should have a doctor perform the procedure. This will lower your risk of infection.
During your visit, your doctor will likely swab the area with alcohol to remove any dirt or bacteria. Then he or she will puncture your blister using a sterile needle.

Treatment for bullae
The following treatment is appropriate if bullae are present:
• Use compresses with Burow solution (10% aluminum acetate) in a 1:40 dilution until bullae resolve (usually within a few days)
• Compresses with a 1:10.000 solution of potassium permanganate are also effective
• Drain large bullae with a sterile syringe, and leave the roof intact
• Prescribe systemic antibiotics that cover Staphylococcus aureus and group A streptococci
