  Ouch, Mimi! You poor thing!
  
  Little one is sleeping, but she would say, "Oh, no! Boo boo!" and blow kisses to make you feel better.

  Mimi hon, get to the doctor, please. I'm not sure what they'll do about it but it doesn't please me that it's blistering already.

  oh and (((((Mimi)))))

• botoni said on Aug 28, 2007....

  MISSMIMI!!! Ouch! Now let me advise you. If you ve got blisters from a burn you need to get your pretty little ass to a clinic right now. I ve had 2nd and 3rd degree burns to my hands from hot oil. Damn painful and very very subject to infection and really ugly scaring. A good clinic can dress, clean and tend those blisters so that there will be minimal long term damage. GO NOW DAMMIT!

• evil_twin said on Aug 28, 2007....

  Mimi, my nurse is unavailable right now, so I can't ask her. But I really do think this sounds like something a doctor should look at. I burned myself once pretty badly, and I didn't see a doctor. Then the blisters popped and got all infected and I ended up getting really sick. It might be a good idea to see your doctor. If it blisters like that, it could be serious.

  I once tilted a hot pan of grease onto my foot, when the handle was broken and I didn't know it.  I stepped outside and stuck my foot in the snow!  The doc said it was the best thing I could have done.  If you have serious damage, you should see a doc!  I thought mine was just nothing, but then I heard talk about "skin grafts" and such--and ended up on crutches.  Hope yours isn't serious enough to see a doc, but if it is, can you beat mine?  My scar is shaped like the United Kingdom!

• pickersplock said on Aug 28, 2007....

  Owwww, it hurts just thinking about it!  Listen to Botoni and get to the doctor, at least you can get something for the pain!

• MissMimi said on Aug 28, 2007....

  The pain has really calmed down.  I kept a bag of frozen corn on it all night.  It is really red, and there may be a small blister on the back of my hand.  I can't really tell because it's a little swollen, and I'd rather not poke around at it too much.
   
  I have it covered now with a gauze pad that I put some Neosporin on.  I guess I'll live.  But, boo hoo, I hate getting burned.

• wakingharmony said on Aug 28, 2007....

  Vanilla?  Very interesting, harmony.  I'll remember that for the next time I do something klutzy in the kitchen.

• MissMimi said on Aug 29, 2007....

  actually the pain is gone.  It stings if I touch it or bump it, but it doesn't throb any more.  I think the ice helped a lot.  If it looks worse ot hurts in the morning, I'll go see the doctor.

  [sits back and listens for the expected nagging and scolding]

• Alyss said on Aug 29, 2007....

  I shall resist the temptation to nag about doctors and instead offer a hug of sympathy. {hugs}

• gingersoul said on Aug 29, 2007....

  Mimi......i am glad to read your poor little hand is doing better....{hug}

  Strange......i have been always told to never put water or ice on fresh blisters.

  Good is working for you ....you know what is great in absorbing the heat and the swollen? Raw potato. Yep....when i cook and burn my fingers i put some potatoe slice on the part...it works like a charm....

  **then i roast the potato with garlic.....yummi......LOL....(kidding)** ..

• skald said on Aug 29, 2007....

• Me-Myself&I said on Aug 29, 2007....

  you keep a close eye on that hand of yours, don't let it get infected. call

   your doctor and ask for some Silver Sulfadiazine....please. take care

   and bless your poor little cute little sweet little left hand!!

   

• MissMimi said on Aug 29, 2007....

  Can I put the vanilla in cookie batter and eat the cookies?  Will that help?  :D

• wakingharmony said on Aug 29, 2007....

  ok ok lol ...I knew I was putting myself out there with this on....lol....But what have you got to loose  1st  I always put under cold water to stop burning process, while under water I grab Vanillia which is always out when cooking (now) pour some on area, grab a few paper towels soak with vanillia and put on area  can pour more on towel over sink   if burn blisters or skin is broke go to Dr.  ..ER.  I   never had to go there  except when Daughters Did with the Fire deal with my girls.....and they couldnt belive that Colleen the baby had only one tiny red mark on her leg & the singed eyelashes and hair on one side of body , older sister had deep 2nd degree burns on her stomach  still has scars (she didn't put anything on herself after putting herself out from fire..she only would take care of her sister till EMTS got there...the other person there,(That was allowd there) had a hard time geting her to put her self out, and let him put the baby . She is still terrified of fires (both ) But I was and am so proud of how she acted so quickly.....I was called after 911.

• Eilan said on Aug 29, 2007....

  Sounds like you did the right thing by getting ice on it right away and keeping it there.  My husband did something similar a few years back--he burned both of his hands (the palms, though) when he tripped and fell into a fire.
  
  Guess you won't be backhanding anyone with your left hand for a while!  :D
  

• silverwhisper said on Aug 30, 2007....

  mimi, i trust your hand is better now?

• MissMimi said on Aug 30, 2007....

  It's still red, red enough that I can play the sympathy card with B [smiles sweetly] but yes, it's fine.  I believe the patient will live.

  Gee Ed, I'm a little disappointed.  I was looking forward to hearing you nag me about asking for help. ;)
