OUCH !! I have done this before!!

Keep your thumb in a container or similar of cold water until it stops hurting so much (YES this can be hours!.!.!.)!. When you take your thumb out atlast, cover the burn in honey!.!.!. Honey is pretty much the best thing out for burns!.!.!. DONT USE ICE ON IT!! :) Good luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try sticking your thumb in vinegar for a while!. Other than that, if the burn is big then you should consider going to see a doctor about it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
