i remember i did that in florida and i kept ice on it but!.!.your not gunna like this!.!.!.!.i was carring the ice pack around and my bro was like if you just leave it and dont put ice on it then it will only be really painfull for like 5 minutes! so he grabed my ice pack and threw it away!.!.!.!.holy **** it hurt like crap but he was right!.!.after like 5 minutes of excurciating pain it didnt hurt only if i touched it alot!.!.so if you need it to not hurt quickly!.!.!.thats one option


or just rap and tape an icecube in a cloth around your fingerWww@Answer-Health@Com

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!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

don't worry, same thing happened with me a few months ago, i know, it hurts like 8 bitches 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!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

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 luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
