Managed to avoid yet another doctor visit today. Had I needed to see a doctor it would have been the 6th visit in 12 days.
I had a very nice cup of coffee at lunchtime, considering it had to be reheated in the microwave. Why? Because I spent 15 minutes running cold water over my left thumb & right wrist to take the sting out of the scalds resulting from pushing too hard on the plunger of the Men's Shed french press coffee maker.
Violent and almost boiling backwash erupted from the top of the thing which hit me on the wrist & thumb mentioned earlier.
Tip of me hat to whoever discovered the cold running water burn treatment method, it's brilliant.
End result: no blisters, no change in skin colour in affected area, almost no pain except when accidentally bumped, and even then it's nothing like it was in the recovery process. The incident occurred 10 hours ago.
