Burned my damn fingers

This is fucking great. Just burned the shit out of my middle and ring finger on my left hand about 20 mins ago cooking. Set a plate down on a burner I forgot to turn off and picked it up. Got 2 big fucking immediate blisters. Hurts pretty damn bad but not intolerable. Ive soaked my fingers in cold water and took a few ibuprofens. Is there anything else I could do or am I pretty much beat?? Have no gauze to wrap them in tonight. Tried to wrap them loosely in a paper towel w/ tape but that felt worse than uncovered. Thanks for any tips havent had to deal with a bad burn in a very long time.

Sometimes I tie some string tightly around the finger below the burn, and that helps. Nothing like a good stiff drink or three though.

leave it alone.Dont put it under cold water again.That will just prolong the burning sensation.
What were you cooking?

If you have a convenience store open around you, I find that burn cream works wonders.

Was cooking hot dogs forgot to turn the burner off and put a glass plate down on it to toss some frenchfries on a few mins after the dogs were done. Plain old fucking stupidity. 
any good brands youd recommend red?

I found some aloe containing lidocaine, and tied the base of my fingers. Too bad its not cocaine. Its working alright though. Going to wake my bro up and grab a few norcos and pass out. Any top notch creams i could pick up tomorrow would be great. Thanks.

Here is what my St Johns Ambulance book says about heat burns...just giving a quick glance for your piticular situation...noting some key factors.
>DO NOT break blisters >DO NOT touch burn with fingers (infection) >DO NOT apply lotions, oils, butter or fat to injury >DO NOT cover the burn with cotten wool, adhesive dressing or tape.
When you get a burn, immediately cool the burned area: -Immerse in cold water until pain is relieved -remove jewellery -loosen tight clothing before swelling occurs
Cooling will reduce the tempurature of the burned area and prevent further tissue damage. Reduce swelling and relive pain. These are a given. Cover with sterile material
This is very basic information I realize. Just keep things clean and make sure it heals properly, dont want a very distinct scar.
