Yikes!

I usually run the cold water tap over it. Keep it under the stream of water for a long time.

Fingers are acceptable Atkins food and frying them in bacon grease will get your fat intake up! Sorry! I couldn't resist!

Since I do this all the time, I keep an aloe plant around to break open a stem and put the gel-like juice on the burn. Works wonders. It will help heal your grated thumb as well. My poor aloe plant is a hideous sight, but I love it anyway. I can't bake anything in the oven without letting a hand or arm touch something hot and get a blister.

Congrats on the poundage lost!!!

Sunny!

I use aloe plant too... also triple antibiotic cream will help not to get infected ... toothpaste is a nono though...

Toothpaste was a no go didnt work
I found a site that said Chap Stick!! umm NO! LOL Didnt work..
Another site that said use Balmax.. yeah that didnt work either
Only Aloe I had in the house was the kind for sun burn in the bottle.. That was kinda relieving.. but still pain..

So After switching between 2 frozen wash rags till about Midnight.. I managed to fall asleep.. Woke up this morning with a wet butt.. because the washrag ended up under it.. BUT.. NO PAIN!

Yikes, just how much finger did you grate off?

Just the top few layers!!

So in conclusion I had minty oily baby butt cream smelling fingers and a wet butt this morning.. Another pound in a half had fallin off somewhere in the night as well but all is well. I think maybe i'll start making bacon with my oven mitts on! And grating cheese with rubber gloves LOL! All is well that ends well! Thanks again for all the HELP!

Sorry to hear of your Kitchen woes

I use a grater like this where you put the lump of cheese in and turn the handle - no more grated fingers!!
