My finger burnt when I was playing with lighter and plastic some white skin appeared. I removed it and put my finger in ice. The time I remove my hand it starts again. I apply burn heal it provide rest but after a worry like a 2 step walk it pains. Then I see this site. I remove cream and wrap aluminium for some time. It heats and hurt but after some time it make me able to sleep quietly at night.Replied By Tricia (Eugene, Or) on 02/27/2012
I burned my thumb pulling something out of the oven and tried the foil remedy. It worked and I just want to thank everyone for taking the time to share your results!Replied By Kelly (Sydney, Australia) on 03/14/2012
I was making crepes late last night and not thinking properly, grabbed a plate that had been sitting in a 180 degree oven for a good 10 minutes with a thin teatowel. A blister immediately formed on the tip of my thumb and like most people here, ran it under cool water and then placed it in a bowl of cold water. Every time I lifted my thumb out of water, severe pain and aches would happen again. I hopped on the net hoping a solution would help me and voila! Found this site, and was at first incredibly skeptical about the effectiveness of tin foil. An hour into reading the comments I decided to give it a go due to my tiredness and at first it didn't seem to work until I read someone's comment about too many layers of foil. Unwrapping half the layers I had on, I could feel the effects of tin foil immediately!
Super glad to have found this solution and have recommended it to those close to me!
