Okay I have to take this opportunity to share something with you guys that many others would not understand. I have gotten burned in the same place between my wrist and hand about 3 times with my heating pad. Finally I got one that turns off automatically after 1 hour. Last week I woke up and lifted my head from my heating pad that always sits on my pillow. My ear was numb and stuck to my head. In a moment of half woken paranoia, I thought my ear had melted to the side of my head. I couldn't feel it so I imagined how it must have looked- all skinless and malformed. Then I woke up, sensation came back and I was ok. :D

Burns, Burns, and yet another Burn. I got a muffin out of the mic and it was hotter than I thought. I had it on a napkin on the back of my hand. A few hours later I went to rub my face and water was all over. The big blisters popped. They looked to be heeling ok, scabbed up… I had to get a prescription for something else, so I had the doc look at it. He put an antibiotic cream on it, then wrapped it up. But now the cream has soften it up and it's all wet looking. At least he gave me oral antibiotics to take too, just in case it got infected. I should just remember all my other burns I have had over the years, once it's scabbed up, leave it alone… Greg
