Because of the blistering (bubble on top) you have what is called a second degree burn. DO NOT POP THE BLISTER!!! By popping the blister, you expose the new skin under the bubble to infections. That blister is there to help heal the skin after the burn. A bad burn hurts and will be there for 10-14 days. Try some over the counter Lidacane spray. It will numb the skin. The blister will break on its own when it is ready to do so. Good Luck with that.

Your burn sounds really serious to me...
Put either cold butter or some soya sauce on it, to stop it from hurting even more...
Most importantly, do not pop your blister, or else, it will hurt like hell and you will most likely get an infection.

burn are you saying from burn? nope that is nt' it? if you hae bubble on a burn that means its got blister. well i know you want ot pop it but it will make it worse it will go down and where you pop it will be tender and hurt worse. tooth paste if for fire ants and mostquito bites.

run it under cold water if its a minor burn.. it depends if its a first degree or second or third degree. go to a drug store and buy something for it
