I burned My hand 3 days ago by boiling tea and my hand has a weird skin problem. The skin on the back of my hand looks like a red rash and has kind of a big grayish circle. The skin on the back of my hand feels scaly and tightened and when i try to flex my wrist the skin starts to pull and it burns a little. Is there any type of ointment or something that i could put on it to make it go away?

Aloe works well on burns. Try covering the burn too so it dosen't dry out. Thats what causes the pulling.

Just try not to irritate your hand and let it rest for a few days, and if it doesn't get better, see a doctor.

the skin being tightened and looking like a rash is the dead skin that was burnt trying to shed. the grey bit is the part that is healing underneath the other part. put a little sorbalene cream on it or some lavender oil (the essential stuff). the burning bit is the dead skin pulling on the new stuff underneath. its like… the feeling of when you pull skin off when ur sunburnt or scabs (if u do) but on a bigger scale
try not to play with it too much
