    Um, so, I burnt my thumb with concentrated white vinegar. I tried googling what to do, but I haven’t been able to find an answer.

    Just wondering if the wisdom of the DT has any insight?

    pic of thumb, sfw

    Edit: nvm. Ive just realised it’s interacting with the grazes I have on my thumb from punching moths yesterday; I missed and punched the wooden bed frame. Rinsed thoroughly

      Like any burn you should run it under cold water but tbh I’ve never heard of burning oneself with vinegar. I hope it feels better soon.

      acetic acid is nasty. Rinse with lots and lots of water.

      keep it away from your eyes and don’t breathe it in
