Skin Burning
Please suggest some medicine or treatments to get instant relief from burning. My thumb finger got burned by touching a heated steal utensil. I applied silver X ointment but nothing is happening. It's really burning like anything.

Immersion of affected part in cold water immediately after burn, minimises the extent of injury.Now for relief from burning sensation can apply toplap gel(symptomatic treatment).But it's better to know the depth of injury for proper management.
