Tonight I reached for a metal pot to take it off of a burner and didn't think to grab a pot holder first because the burner wasn't on so I didn't think the pot was hot without fire.
Turns out, my brother in law to be had just finished making coffee and this I was unaware of. The pot was so hot that it took me at least 4 seconds to register in my head that the handle was burning the palm of my hand.
I pulled my hand away and looked at my palm to find that the handle had left a deep red impression on my palm. The impression of course will not go away until my hand heals. It is almost like what you see in westerns when the cow gets branded with the name or initals of the person who poked the cow with the brander. Its not that deep and I doubt its nearly that painful.
I do not think this burn calls for an emergeny room visit so please do not answer this question if your only response is "See a doctor" because I am not paying 200 dollars to stop my hand from stinging.
