  1. ice , ice, ice walgreens/ burn cream- pain reliever


  2. umm i did that once but with a straighting iron i put polysporin on it and it felt wayyy better i hope this helps ^^

  3. Fresh Aloe Vera helps to soothe the burning feeling, I burn myself occasionally cooking and after putting ice on it for 15 minutes dry it off and cover it in aloe. The only other thing you can really do is keep ice on it 15 minutes on 15 minutes off and  keep smothering in aloe - You will be so surprised how quickly they heal with the aloe.

    But ice compress and maybe a nurofen plus or whatever pain killers you have for strong pain - That's probably the best you can do to stop the pain in the first 24 hours of a nasty burn.


  4. you need strong pain killer and ...try to rub the skin with tooth paste

  5. cut your hand off. this will completely stop the pain in your 3 fingers and if you get lucky you could get a bionic hand someday

  6. best thing i ever done (my mum taught me)

    get some flour and mix it with water to make a paste - then cover your fiingers in it and let it dry - to form a crust.  this will not only cool your fingers but will draw all the heat out.

    i would also definately seek medical attention :)

  7. sudacrem? not sure what that is, but you want to keep it clean to avoid infection. ALOE - real aloe - directly from a plant - works wonders. Cut a piece of it and squeeze the gel from the inside onto the wound.

  8. I work with extremely hot steam at work and I burnt my fingers once.

    The only thing that brought me relief was to wrap my fingers in a thin cloth and submerge them in a cup of cold water. If I took it out for even a second, I'd be in tears. I just kept changing the water so it stayed cold.

    I hope that this works for you if you try it.

    Take care.

  9. Tylenol, Advil, Paracetamol (depending on where you live) for pain

    Keep a container of cool water close by--you'll have to keep changing it, possibly for several hours

    Don't put anything oil-based on it, because that's going to keep the heat in and make it hurt worse

    Depending on how many layers of skin came off, you may want to consider going to the doctor to get an antibiotic cream to prevent secondary infection

    When you first burn it, put it under cool water to bring the temperature down--NEVER put ice on a burn because it causes tissue damage, which is basically the same as burning it all over again

  10. whell you could get some weed thet would help umm go to a doctor and see what s/he says  

  11. If the pain persists, you need to go to hospital. Even after the skin peels and you have cooled it. They hopefully will prescribe you a skin cream

  12. go to the doctor and get some burn cream (they sell a weaker version over the counter). it numbs the skin and will relieve some of the pain. also, some aspirin will help. but pretty much, you'll just have to tough it out.

    I was 7 years old and we were moving to a new house. the new fancy thing was electric stoves. it got red hot and then cooled rapidly when turned off.... well, it just looked like it was cool because when i put my hand on the stove to boost myself up on the countertop..... I let out a scream that could be heard for about ten miles.... and I had to tough that out, as a 7 year old. I feel your pain.

  13. Nothing greasy (like butter).  Ice is best.

  14. Run it under cool water. Apply cool water immediately to stop the burning process,  "Don't use ice, because it's too cold and could further traumatize already damaged skin."

    Milk or soda works, too. If water is not convenient, use whatever you have nearby to cool a burn quickly--even milk or a cold can of soda wrapped in a clean towel, . Then rinse the burn with cool water as soon as possible.

    Cool with a compress. Apply a washcloth or towel soaked in cool (not icy) water on and off for several hours.

    Gently cleanse the burn area at least twice a day with mild soap and cool water or with hydrogen peroxide, which kills germs


  15. Keep running your fingers under some cooled water (Room temperature) from your tap. Don't use ice or butter.
