How do I fix my burnt finger?

Question

Alright, so I was getting garlic bread out of the oven[yes, ladies and gents I was wearing oven mitts] and I burnt my finger. A blister formed on the tip of my ring finger immediatly[basically it took the time to get the glove off after throwing the garlic bread back into the oven and practically all over the floor for the blister to form].

I put it in cold water, [mind u, it's still soaking while we speak..yay for friends that type for you:P] and it still hurts, it's been over an hour and it still HURTS!!!!![and i can't even go pee, cause it'll hurt.] So I have no idea what to do! Someone please help!!!

It seriously hurts more than dipping my fingers in really really really hot oil...dont ask.....

Help Me!! It'll be GREATLY appreciated.

and dontcha worry, everyone is laughing over here.:P

Answer 1

it's bad to turn on cold water instantly. If you have a burnt finger the 1st thing you do is run it over warm water. Just put toothpaste on it or if you have Aloe put it on. May take a few days or 2 weeks to cure depending on the size.

Answer 2

I burnt my hand before, and trust me, it hurt for quite awhile!!

If you have to do something (ie. go pee!) get a washcloth and soak it in cool water.  Just keep this up, because, yes, your finger is going to hurt for some time.

Go see a doctor if it looks serious, infected, you know the drill.

Sorry to hear you hurt yourself, and I have been there before too. The best thing I know to tell you is to keep it in COOL water~ not cold. Cold water will cool off the top of the burn but the inside of the burn will keep burning. Don't use any oils on it of any kind~ that acts like a mini deep fryer for your finger. Can someone go to the drugstore for you and get you burn gel? That is safe to use on a burn, and should have a numbing agent in it to help with the pain. Also, don't break the blister~ the flesh inside is seething and the least little bit of anything to touch it will make it scream at you with pain; also it may cause an infection. If you can't get the burn gel then just keep going with the cool water. Hope this helped you out some, and hope you feel better soon.
