I have burned myself. I did it yesterday with hot water. Just being absent minded and managed to get boiling water on myself. Treated it with cold water and Motrin yesterday. It is on the top of my leg, actually I got both legs but today just one is bad.
The red area is just over the size of my fist (I do have man hands a bit) and there are a few blisters. Do I need to have this looked at or am I ok to try to just keep the blisters from bursting as best I can?
I hate going to the doctor. It is a long drive to town and a long wait in a waiting room. I thought I should ask some of you, who may have some medical knowledge, if I really should or not. I am happy to tough it out, but don't want to make things worse.
Here is what it looks like this morning:
