This oil is such an Essential oil. No pun intended. How important is this oil? So amazingly vital. Today I experienced an unexpected incident in my kitchen as I was cooking. I was steaming some food and went to empty the boiling pot of water and one of the side on the pot slipped out of the cloth holder and I dropped the pan. When it landed the hot water splashed up onto my inner legs. Both sides. The burn was so painful. It was right up there with child birth. non stop. I nearly passed out. For two solid hours. Cold compress and cold water. I immediately put on aloe and made a lavender spray. One ounce water and 25 drops of lavender oil. I applied the oil neat onto all areas of my burns. I had 3 places about 12" x 6". Very red. My skin was not peeled off. Because I have dealt with a bad burn before and dealt with healing and knowledge from a professional medic, I do first recommend anyone having such burns to seek immediate medical assistance. Every half hour I have sprayed the lavender spray and the oil neat. I has been 7 hours. I am still feeling the burning sensation in a few places. I also am taking 800 ml of Advil. I only have one blister that is about 1" x 2". Considering how badly I burnt, one blister isn't to bad at all. The Lavender also sooths the areas. Roman Chamomile and Peppermint is also recommended. I am going to apply that soon. To prevent any infection, I will be using Tea Tree Oil. I may call my doctors office tomorrow and get some advice or see if they feel I should be seen. I know that Infection is the main concern of burns and keeping area clean and skin intact.
I will continue my post tomorrow and keep all updated.......
