Got a steam burn in between 2 fingers. hurts turning red. what to do?

Burn: The key is how big is it. If it is large and blistering, go to an er or doctor immediately. If it is just mild, soak in cool water and cover it with a gauze pad. You can use a soothing gel if that helps. Watch for infection and seek medical help it gets worse.
