Aluminum Foil Works for Burns!

Aluminum foil didnt work for me, as soon as I put it on seemed its hurting even more. Burnt my finger making breakfast for my hubby, the glass plate was too close to the frying pan (damn lack of counter space) and my thumb just stuck to the plate, never experience aburnt so bad, blister in all shades of white popped up seconds later and cool running water didnt even seem to help, so even tho ure not suppose to I put ice cube on it, tht seemed to stop the pain and ofcourse we have immediate errands to run after breakfast so I got in the car with a cup full of ice. Good while its on, as soon as I remove my finger its hurts BAD. So when I finally got home found this, tried foil, sorry but I almost shat myself from pain lol then I went for alcohol, 91% rubbing alcohol, filled up a shot glass n stuck my thumb in it, first couple of minutes it stang like hell but started getting better after a while, then after keeping my thumb in alcohol I put sum toothpaste on, I can still feel it n it stings but nowhere as bad as it was before, so thnk you guys!

Please, Please, don't do this. I don't like to burst your bubble but in the long run you are doing more harm than good. If you want natural remedies this is NOT Natural. If you aren't aware Aluminum causes Alzheimers and a slew of problems. It is in anti perspirant deoderants and in lotions and creams because it stops moisture from leaving the skin, keeping you dry and in lotions it keeps moisture under skin to look vibrant but in the long run that aluminum will float away to your brain and and accumulate and in time look out! There are alternatives to the stuff they supply us with.

DO NOT Cook with aluminum either! It seeps into the food and you eat it and you know where it goes once inside you.......... Your brain and organs.

Stay away from All metals the best you can. Never use non stick pans either... All very bad for you.

This is not just my opinion.. Do The Research. I have.

I tried aluminum foil for a burn I got when I accidentally poured boiling water on my hand. As others have mentioned, it was incredibly painful and the only thing that kept back the pain was putting it under cold running water. If I took my hand out of the water the unbearable pain would start again after a few seconds. After reading about it here, I tried putting aluminum foil around my hand. First I tried with the shiny side in and I pushed through the pain for about five minutes with no relief. Then I tried with shiny side out and stuck with it for 15 minutes. Ouch. I couldn't stand it anymore so I put a pack of frozen vegetables on top. That worked, unless I removed the frozen vegetables. I kept that going for about 2 hours with no relief, so I gave up and tried the baking soda paste mentioned here. I covered the burn thickly and as soon as it started hurting again I washed it off and re-covered it. It was still hurting a little when I was ready for bed so I put the baking soda on, put my hand in a plastic bag, covered it all with a sock, and went to sleep. This morning there's some redness but almost no pain.

In response to the aluminum foil and burns... I do not recommend trying this at all!! When you put aluminum over anything hot, it traps the heat inside and continues to cook... Why would you do that to any part of your body!!?? This is a big NAY from me...
