I burned muself with aan iron. I used vitamin E oil and aloe on the burn, it healed an left no scar. I just punched a hole with a straight p[in in the vitamin E capsule and squeezed the oil on burn.

Ouchy Ouchy. I hope it heals fast for you. Looks like its going to leave a scar. Aloe Vera is good for burns. Make sure to keep it clean. I'm glad its not your hands or that would cause you not to be able to sew. That would have been bad!!!

I never heard of that before, but honey is wonderful. It is full of all the good stuff. I have never had a bad burn so I have just been keeping ointment on it and keeping it covered so it doesn't dry out.

It should hurt and it probably will soon! If a bad burn doesn't hurt, that usually isn't a good thing. It means it has burned through all layers and deadened the nerves. Hope it heals up well for you.

That isn't good. :( It really doesn't hurt at all. It did for a couple minutes after it happened and then it stopped. And it happened so quick, guess that iron was REALLY hot.
