How to Remove Chile Oils from Your Hands
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Touch your eyes or nose after handling fresh chiles, and watch out! Not any more: A common pantry staple helps to remove those irritating oils much better than soap alone.
Doesn't work. Just spreads the oils to ALL OVER MY HANDS!!!!! PAIN!
I was cutting some cili padi and dried chillis (very hot variety type).
My hands and fingers were red (chemical burns first degree, I reckon).
Went through various channels on youtube and internet search:-
Tried all of below, NONE OF THESE SUGGESTIONS worked:-
-sodium bicarbonate paste mix
-olive oil
-lemon juice
-detergent
-bathe my hands in milk, the full-cream kind
In the end, to avoid aggravating my skin further (the less you scrub or wash there will be less abrasions, the better)
Took some oral painkillers (paracetamol AND celebrex; can use others like ibuprofen or volteran), applied topical steroid creams to reduce the inflammation, and stayed in my bedroom blasting the air-conditioner at the lowest temperature and fan. Cried literally from the sting, prayed to God, I swear pain score would've been an eleven. Couldn't move my fingers. And attempted to sleep in pain.
Few hours later when i woke up, my hands were still stinging, but at least my pain score wasn't an eleven. Probably a seven, but bearable enough to type here, which I could not earlier. I still have restricted finger movement from the pain and my skin feels very fragile and sensitive no thanks to all the 'scrubs' i attempted earlier.
Hope nobody relives my experience, ever. So my suggestion would be avoid all the unnecessary folk remedies as they cause abrasions and aggravate the pain further. Just wash once, if it doesn't work, it doesn't. If it does, you're lucky you happen to have the mild chili burn. Don't retry and retry other 'remedies'. Do not rub, scrub, etc. ALSO, DO NOT HOLD COLD STUFF or FROZEN FOODS. Because you can get cold burns, without knowing it. So you are essentially injuring your skin further. You may get temporary relief but I would suggest against it.
Wait a few hours for the pain to subside, naturally. Take painkillers. I was avoiding to go to the emergency department at ALL COST, because I read some had to go to the hospital. In my case, I am a doctor. So the embarassment would've killed me more than the sting.
Detergent is about the least effective one considering that it has basic properties. Next time if it ever happens again try alcohol, it neutralizes capsaicin. The point of some of those other techniques is to remove the capsaicin, which is hard to do, but alcohol will instead neutralize the burning.
Edit: Vinegar works too if you don't have alcohol.
Is there a pain score 11?
I think the capsaicin can melt in the milk but if you keep putting your hand in the same bath it might just keep lingering around your hand. I think you have a change the milk to fresh bath after some time. Just a guess. Because i once used milk bath and the milk turn up becoming hot. Dunno if it's my hand temperature or the capsaicin. But i think it's hotter than my hand that's why i can feel it right?
Edit: ps typing with burning hands😆
This helped! I got pepper oil on some eczema patches on my hands and tried several homemade remedies that didn't help..
With this method, one wash took the pain from a 9 to a 6.. some more washes and the following helped it subsiding with time...
Here's what I did:
-Drizzle the dish soap over the infected area, lightly work it in but don't rub too hard.. don't spread it over unaffected areas
-Let it sit for 1 minute, then rinse with hot water (not too hot as I noticed that irritated it more)
_Repeat the above as needed...
-Give it a shot of cold water for awhile
-Apply aloe vera gel to further help it cool..
Seems like this worked for me. I tried everything (Baking soda paste, milk, fresh lemon juice, dish detergents, and it only relieved the pain temporarily. I endured this for at least 5 hours. So I used olive oil, rubbed both hands together, and then I let it sit on my hand for 10 minutes. After those 10 minutes, I applied dish detergent and rubbed my hands vigorously before washing my hands. I repeated the detergent and hand washing only for like two or three times. I only used cold water because hot or warm water made my hands burn worse. I dried my hand with a paper towel. Now I can finally go to sleep.
I made guacamole with habanero and my hands were on fire. Tried this and it WORKS!!!! Thank you!
I didn't do anything right away because I didn't start to feel the burn for about a half-hour. At that point, olive oil didn't work at all for me. Neither did Seventh Generation dishwashing liquid (which contains coconut oil- based detergent rather than petroleum-based detergent like Dawn does), Dr Bronner's liquid castile soap, Bee and Flower Brand sandalwood soap, or rubbing alcohol which I read about elsewhere. I was not about to waste drinkable alcohol which was also suggested!
I'd also read about vinegar working and was thinking I might try that until I realized I had a lime rind sitting right there on a cutting board. I was making Thai green papaya salad and had juiced the lime to put in the dressing, in which I also used the chilis that attacked my hands! A good rubdown with the lime rind, which I cut sufficiently that it could be pretty much flattened and turned inside out, followed by washing with the dishwashing liquid I mentioned earlier, reduced the burning sensation on my hands by what I'd say was about 80-90%. That was enough that it wasn't really bothering me and after a couple of hours it was pretty much gone.
Given that I typically use whole hot chilis in making either Thai or Mexican food, recipes which also frequently call for lime juice or have lime wedges as an accompaniment, this will be my go-to solution in the future which I will do right away. I suspect it's the case that the sooner, the better. 🌶️
Worked like a charm !! After washing ghost pepper oils with Dawn soap twice I googled how to do it correctly . I only had olive oil . I used it , wiped it off then washed it with soap and water . It did a great job !
Omg God bless you for sharing this!! My hands and fingers were burning so much 😭😭😭
EDIT: WHITE VINEGAR REMOVED THE BURN. SOAK YOUR FINGERS IN VINEGAR!!! Warm water increases my burn, dish soap, liquid soap, bar soap did nothing. Milk did nothing, rubbing olive oil did nothing. My finger tips burn like acid even writing this message. Please help me god. Aloe Vera Vaseline moisturizer did nothing, burn returned after 10 secs.
Thanks pal
Undiluted white vinegar is the only thing that worked for me, as well.
I soaked the affected area for 15 minutes. Then washed with dish soap, and cool water.
Pain went from a 10 to a 3.
I’m guessing the vinegar breaks down the barb casings within the capsaicin?
Thanks for posting the original comment. It’s appreciated!
Red wine vinegar works too.
Thank you. It works for me👍After rubbing hands with vegetable oil, leave the oil on the hands for 5 to 10 minutes before washing with soap.
I did this and it took a little bit of the burn away. Then I saw the cucumber peels left on the counter and rubbed it on the affected spot and it didn't burn anymore. Not sure if it works 100% but it worked for me
Had a burn after chopping about 30 jalapeño peppers used your method that helped right away thanks tons
Its been hours! I tried dishsoap, detergent soap, detergent, alcohol, milk, cornstarch, rice, colgate, baking soda, sugar, lemon, oil. And nothing wobt work. I just hold frozen food it relieves the pain but it doesnt go away. Its still there when i remove ny hands from frozen food. Helpmeee!!! I'm literally crying in pain.
Update: Didnt do any of these tricks. Just placed my hand in cold ice overnight. When I woke up the burn lessened but there was still a bit left. After 18 hours its really gone for good.
Exactly the same as you, i hv tried almost everything,i can't help but see the comments...the demons like power#king chilli😭🔥🔥🔥😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
What???
How do you put your hand in ice "overnight"?
Do you take them off while you sleep?!?
@@guynakash No you really just put your hand on ice overnight maybe with a basin beside your bed
Soak your hand in milk. It melt the capsaicin but might need to few times
This made it worse don’t do this. I’ve been suffering for almost 7hrs now 😭😭
After 12 hours I googled this remedy. I poured a small amount of olive oil on my hands and worked it in concentrating on my fingertips and used a cuticle brush. After rubbing a couple of minutes, I washed my hands and the brush with dish soap and water concentrating on the fingertips and followed that with hand soap. I then rubbed one of my eyes to test it. I’d rubbed my eyes the night before after chopping Jalapeños and it was uncomfortable for a few minutes. After doing this I still felt a little burn but it went from a 8 down to a 2 maybe. Noticeable but not bad. For me this seems to work. It doesn’t completely remove the burn but it reduced it. Will try next time right after handling the peppers to see if it works better.
This did not work my hands are still burning
Amy Iltzsch me too. I cant sleep because i feel like my hands are on fry
Same here
WHITE VINEGAR REMOVES THE BURN. SOAK YOUR FINGERS IN VINEGAR!!! Warm water increases my burn, dish soap, liquid soap, bar soap did nothing. Milk did nothing, rubbing olive oil did nothing.

@@UnsaltedCashew38 stop copy and pasting this on several videos lmao
@@JonathonGomez Stop watching all the same videos :)
You just saved my fingers! Thank you!!
It works!! I used massage oil and wash it with soap!
I was cutting up habanero peppers. I cut them up without gloves and it was horrible. I tried the process 3 times and it helped a little. But they still burning pretty good.
My wife said it worked.
It's works wonderfully... It's better than milk... Thank U very much for sharing this tips... 😘
Made my hands worse
Thank you my hands were on fire I feel a lot better now
if you handle a couple peppers , use a spoon to deseed not your hands , if you work with very hot peppers or many peppers , well , its worth buying and storing gloves to use while handling them . Get a 100 count box of gloves , use , toss , if handling lots of peppers that are also very hot , this is even trickier as they can seep through the gloves , most of us don't have to deal with this but if you do , understand this is going to be an issue for you if you farm peppers or for some reason handle many in day .
exactly this shit doesnt work! DAMN i tried everything almost i washed them in soap 5 times, oil + soap 2 times, Ammonia 2 times and Bleach 2 times. BUT STILL MY HANDS COUGHT ON FIRE!
MY JALAPENOS ARE HOME GROWN FROM MY GARDEN TOO.
I feel your pain right now
just experienced this last night.. nothing work. last option is to wash with hot water, i didn't wanna do it but it hurts so bad that i need to do it. it didn't totally remove the burn feeling but it was tolerable
You have to wait a while before you pour anything on the burning area, if you do t too early it will run and spread to other areas.
Thank You very much, it's working well. i have been suffering about one hour. finally, peace!
It helped reducing the spiciness. Thanks. I guess the spiciness would disappear completely if repeated
I'm sorry I'm too late but guys I have experienced burning my hand with hot peppers too. The only remedy I can suggest and would definitely work is soaking your burned hands to a brown sugar paste ( a little amount of water + a lot of sugar) the ratio may be 1T of water and 1/2 cup of brown sugar just soak your hands there and after 45 mins to 1 hr it will slowly fade away. I've tried everything too from dishwashing to milk, oil say it all I know it can be very very painful hut trust me guys just use that brown sugar paste you've got this!
Just 'burnt' my hands from handling chillies last night - Aloe vera worked v well. I mean straight from the plant - cut a few leaves and squeeze out the sap from the leaves onto affected areas.
The oil wash followed by handsoap seemed to help... just hope it doesnt wear off
Apply mustard and lemon juice
OK, oil SEALS IN THE Capsaicin, so NO,,don't use oil. Use a degreaser FIRST, then wash your hands.
No use for lazy people None. ok thanks
No use for lazy people None. no wait that doesnt work either. I tried degreaser, Soap and dish soap, oil, Ammonia and Bleach all but which none works. i think its because its absored in my skin already😣
The point of the oil is to get the capsaicin to come out of your skin pores and into the oils, then wash off the oil. If nothing else it gets most of the capsaicin out.
@@syundown6005 well it doesn't work. I tried the oil process 3 times and it helped very little. So no it didn't work.
THANKYOU! This really works ❤️
WASH YOUR HANDS WITH HOT WATER (I know it hurts but it's important) AND SOAP before putting the oil on, it'll open up the skin pores so that the capsaicin can actually come out first. Then you rub the oil on, which will attract the capsaicin, and then wash the oil off with more soap and water WHILE SCRUBBING.
thank u i was suffering with it for 4 hours straightttt
Use dish soap paired with baking soda latter then wash and repeat until it no longer stings.
Nice Production!
Am I glad I found this video :)
Just tried body powder by Gold Bond. It removed burning in matter of minutes.
I agree.Medicated powder helped the burn a LOT.The oil and soap almost made it worse.
Thank you1 Worked for me!
Thank you, had to do it twice and it certainly did work for me!
Thank you it worked for me
She lied!!!! My hands still on fire!!!! Shame on you lady for lying to me
Quick, simple and prompt
Olive oil and white vinegar makes it worse. I have eczema. Idk what todo. I also wear contacts and I’m afraid to take them out
it worked thanks!!!
Didn't work for me. What if it's been the next day after chopping the peppers and your hands still burn?
thank u very much it really worked !!!!!
IT DOESN'T WORK!!! I needed to put my contact lenses, I did what she said and now my eyes ON FIRE!!!!!!
this was a saviour
just experienced this last night.. nothing worked. last option is to wash with hot water, i didn't wanna do it but it hurts so bad that i need to do it. it didn't totally remove the burn feeling but it was tolerable
Turmeric honey helped me, everything else was a waste
This worked for me, thanks
Worked Great!
I tried washing with dish soap but did not work after 8 washes. Next morning still a problem so tried Greek yogurt and they immediately felt better. I'll keep it up until the stinging around my nail beds goes away.
Greek Yogurt is the way to go! Dairy products cut the oil. "Good job" SL for the suggestion. It WORKED for me!!
I've never heard that before. I've got some 1 million scoville scale hot sauce. Maybe I should put it to the test.
doesn't work at all
This probably works if the chili oil isn't that bad, because it actually worked for me when i was cleaning up some spices without anything.
Thanks you
MINIMAL "relief" Milk worked better. I even tried sugar (which works for the tongue, but not the hands)
Just a tip White Vinegar works (well it did for me), make sure you don't wash it afterwards tho, just gently dry it
After a few minutes, wash it and it should be fine
don’t work for me
Not moving your hands solve the problem for me
Yesss this doesn't work myyy hand is still burn like a fire
Don’t put contacts in after trying this method
I was handling reapers and it was hell because everywhere I touched burned so thank you
Its still burning!!! ohh god i cant sleep with it
I'm hoping this works. I've been scrolling through most of the videos for this
I tried this also, it doez not work! Thanks anyway.
Guys my hands have been burning for 24 hrs. I’m scared to even use the bathroom because when I do I burn myself by accident 😂. HELP.
Didn't work
Isopropyl alcohol.

Or you could just get in front of the problem and wear gloves.
Didn’t work at all.
