I HAVE A POT OF ALOE VERA GROWING IN THE KITCHEN. I USE A PIECE OF IT IT WHEN I GET BURNED.....IMMEDIATLY I PUT IT ON. I BURNED MY HAND(THE WHOLE TOP OF MY HAND) WHEN I WAS MAKING PORK CHOPS, I RINSED THE GREASE OFF WITH COLD WATER AND PUT THE CUT END OF THE ALOE ON IT....NO BURNS!!!!OR BLISTERS...IT IS SO SOOTHING AND COOL

Keep a bottle of Aloe Vera Gel (not lotion) in the kitchen. This is available at Wal-mart or most drug stores. If you have an Aloe plant, this is even better - just break off a piece of the leaf and squeeze out the gel. This relieves the pain and prevents blisters.

Aloe Jelly from the Aloe Vera plant is what I use. I get it from www.aloetherapy.com. If I get it on fast enough, no blisters. No pain and no smelly hands. Aloe has been used as a Medecional plant for centurys. I won't be without it for burns, sunburn, cuts, insect bites and ect.

No more pain on hands with spatters from cooking. If you happen to get a painful scald, splatter on your hand while cooking slice an onion and keep it on for awhile. The onion immediately takes the pain away a wonderful relief. One may try onions for possible sunburn or other ideas for pain.
