Yikes sounds painful: Besides general over the counter pain remedies..topicals that can be tried includin aloe vera, and you might even try some Milk of Magnesia (magnesium hydroxide) or zinc oxide..if those or around...obviously lots of options at the pharmacy/store. If the burn is severe and blistering perhaps worth getting professional help to prevent complications. The pain is reassuring in that the nerves weren't too badly damaged
