And though I quickly realized my mistake, I couldn&#8217;t just drop it (it was glass) but had to keep moving to then set it back down. I think the delay in putting it down is what made the burns worse. I did half-toss it onto the surface of our stove at that point and thankfully it didn&#8217;t land hard enough to break the glass surface of our stove-top (or the dish itself.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Updated Jan 25: I am much better today! I took some Ibuprofin and soaked my fingers and thumbs in cool water until I went to bed last night. Then, I put my hands into socks that were wet so that their coolness continued to help the burning sensation so I could sleep. This morning my fingers are tender but so much better. I think some small blisters may be in my future, but I am thankful for a quick healing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While cooking dinner tonight, I had too many things going on at once (too many irons in the fire, so to speak) and I got distracted and accidentally burned four fingers (2 on each hand) and both thumbs.
