      I didn’t see it listed, if it’s there I apologize.

      White Distilled Vinegar, poured on top of and than soaking a slight burn will take the pain away immediately……………..very weird.

      I grabbed a pan handle, I did not know was hot and got a slight burn, no blister but red and very painful.

      I soaked my hand in white distilled vinegar and honest to goodness, the pain stopped right away. Now I had to keep soaking my hand for an hour or two but the redness and pain went away. My skin did not blister.

      Hope someone finds this helpful.

      Thank you for sharing.
