It sounds like a chemical burn which can happen with really hot chillis. Burn cream, soak in milk. If u see any peeling of the skin, see the doctor asap.

Wash ur hands, dry thoroughly and soak ur hand with uncooked rice. Stay for abt few mins, it will be gone after that

Hi... Try rubbing alcohol first to remove the burning oil. Then, soak the skin in milk or another dairy product.

Hi, Please wash your hands again and again and soak your hands in cold milk

Yes, it happens. You can apply honey and rub it gently. It really helps.
