For those that didn't see the post - it's doing amazingly well now! The worst part is only barely tender. Looks like it scarred though, but it's no big deal. I really appreciate all your concern! :)

Be very carefull about keeping the ice on too long. The ice may feel good because of the cooling effect but ice directly on the skin can be very damaging. If left on too long the ice can actually distroy the skin that was not burned.
So sorry about your accident, I know it hurts big time. Sending my prayer for your quick recovery.

There is a neosporin with pain reliever in it. I personally would go to the drs. My husband set his hand down on our flat top stove, didnt feel anything for awhile and ran it under cold water. At first no problems, but then the skin started peeling. Next thing we knew, we were headed to urgent care where they put a pain creme on it and bandaged up his hand. He had to take a day off from work. Good Luck!

There is a product called Aquaphor. It is the best thing to keep on hand. I use it for burns, on my lips, for my cuticles. And, any kind of mild rash. I get it at Wal Mart. It comes in 2 sizes. I keep the big one at home and the small one in my purse. Many Dr.s us it in their offices.
Hope this helps,

If you can tolerate it, Ibuprofen is good for taking out the inflammation, which is what makes it hurt. If it blisters, wrap it loosely in gause to keep the blisters from popping. Learn to be left handed for a while. I know that seems awkward, but half the population does it all the time.

Vit. E. Punch a hole in a capsule and rub it over affected area.
Works for me.

Sounds like maybe a 2nd degree burn. Believe me...3rd degree burns go past the nerves.

When I was in radiation, they told me to use Aloe - NOT the Trader Joe or whoever - but clear. No color or scent.

If ever you have a burn you should immerse it in water for 10 - 20 minutes minimum as soon as you can(i.e. immediately). If it is very bad then get to a doctor or hospital quickly. If you put foreign substances on the burn it can sometimes be counter - productive as you have to go through the pain of having it removed before they can put the correct stuff on it.Water is the best to re-hydrate and stop the damage - don't put butter or sauces on it.

That is what I use, too. I have heard to use mustard on a burn, but haven't tried that.

Mustard contains vinegar & people use vinegar for sunburns.
