Answer 4

you will be ok,keep the ice on

Answer 5

put some aloe on it and run it under cold water next time instead of putting ice on it

Answer 6

Don't keep it on ice for long.  Just run under slow cool water.  If it is blistering call your local ER, otherwise you are going to hurt for awhile.  Do not put stuff on it.  That is best left up to a Doctor to decide.  Good luck

Answer 7

don't worry, same thing happened with me a few months ago, i know, it hurts like 8 b*****s on a ***** boat, but as long as its not blistering, it's fine, keep ice on it or keep it in cool water and don't take it out until the end of the day, by the end of the day, it will feel much better.

Answer 8

Keep it in cold water that's withstandable. Ice is usually too cold and shocks the body into wanting to heat it up so just use cold water. The burn will go deeper into your skin layers unless you immediately put cold temps on it. The only other thing that might help is topical lidocaine, tylenol, and aloe vera to kill the pain. The damage is probably already done.

Hope you feel better.

Answer 9

run it under warm water, not hot though
