Need Help: Burning Sensation on Hands After Handling Peppers
Does anyone have suggestions for relieving the burning sensation after handling peppers? I chopped up a jalapeño and a bell pepper for chili, and about 30 minutes later, I started feeling a burning/tingling sensation in a few of my fingertips. Now, all five fingers on the hand I used are burning, and it seems to have gotten worse over the past hour.
I’ve tried soaking my hands in milk, rubbing them with cooking oil, and washing several times with dish soap, but nothing seems to help—if anything, the burning has intensified.
I’d really appreciate any remedies that have worked for you. Thank you in advance!
