A few years ago I burned myself on piece of metal I heated up with a torch, A lady I knew told me to use mustard on the burn and it would sooth the pain and heat. I figured she was full of it and shrugged it off. Later that night my fingers started burning even worse, I used ice, "minor" burn cream, holding it under cold water, you know, the usual "tough guys stuff"... I decided hell what would it hurt if I tried a little mustard. I'll be damned if it didn't work wonders! I was totally surprised in the way it cooled and soothed my fingers, and fairly quickly too! I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this or has used it before. Now I keep about 5 packets of mustard in my BOB, a few in my GHB, and a few in my tool bag in my truck. I also have the norm burn wraps and burn gels, but I would be willing to use the mustard first! Any thoughts?!
