Answer 1

Run it under cold water, get to a doctor.

Answer 2

put cold water on gaaz or however you spell it and keep it on for about a day take it off during the day and apply ice and also anibiotic ointment hwlps too. GOOD LUCK!!!

Answer 3

I burnt my hand in a vat of grease, similar to what you have done, but mine was a lot more severe.  The doctor told me to put antibiotic ointment on it, and cover it in gauze and then to wrap it with an ace wrap.

Take tylenol for the pain.
