Oh no! I agree, submerging your hand in a bowl of iced cold water will work better.... I poured boiling water straight from the tea kettle over my hand once... I slept with my hand in the bowl all that night... very painful.
I try to think what I'll do the next time my iron takes a dive...scared to death it may fall on one of my cats or dogs, so I'm planning on grabbing the cord, just to keep it from hitting the floor or anything too hard.
Hope you feel better soon... |
