For you guys giving me gump for hitting the ER over such a 'minor' issue - I
have good health insurance, why not use it when I need it? Once every 9
year or so isn't too bad of a record!

BECAUSE EVERYONE WHO PAYS FOR INSURANCE HAS TO COVER YOUR STUPIDITY
WHEN THEY MAKE THEIR MONTHLY PAYMENTS. That's why not.

You chose the $1,000 fix when a $5 one would have done just as well.

Are you still proud of yourself? Do you work for our gov't, perchance?

Personally, I'll strap up a cut, no problem - but burns I have a lot
of respect for. They can turn nasty pretty quick.ANd crush injuries?
to the doc RIGHT AWAY. Insurance or no insurance.

A burn like that..immediately soak your hand in a glass/bowl of
icewater. ASAP!!!

Keep it soaking for as long as you can stand it
