I have burnt my hand on the stove and am wondering if i need to seek medical attention. i did it late last night and it isn't painful.

Depends: Any burn worse than 1st degree will be painful. If you have no pain at this point it is 1st degree and probably a mild one at that. Don't go putting grease or other substances on that. You only need medical help if the burn is very deep and pain is a good indicator of that.
