Yep, see my post right above yours. My boyfriend insisted I try this about a week ago, bad burn from touching a hot pan handle. I could not believe it! It was red and later peeled but there was no pain and no blister.[/quote]
I don't know why it has to be cold. I told my hubby to put a jar in his fridge in the barn. He welds and stuff, and gets burned at times.
I honestly can not even see where I burned my fingertip
