Today, as I was trying to remove my lunch from the hot oven tray, my finger brushed against the metal for a moment, and I instinctively put it in my mouth. I burnt my tongue, on my finger. I didn't realize that was possible. FML

It's just a transfer of a large amount of heat/energy. Put it under cold water next time to avoid blisters!

Cold/cool water is good, but my first aid classes have always said no ice, I believe because of the potential for nerve damage.

Use Luke warm or cool, not cold. But never use ice for a burn! Tsssssss.... but seriously don't.

next time put it under cold water immediately. If you don't it still burns you, and it can get really bad. hope you're okay haha

Room temperature water will help more then ice or cold water . I guess you learn something new everyday , because I didn't think this was possible either .

I hear putting toothpaste on the burn can help with blisters (after the burn has been run under cold water and patted dry)
