According to the Mayo Foundation, "Third-degree burns are the most serious and involve all layers of skin. Fat, nerves, muscles, and even bones may be affected. Areas may be charred black or appear a dry white. If nerve damage is substantial, there may be no pain at all. These burns should receive emergency medical attention."
Hope it's not really a 3rd-degree burn, whoever has it. Ow ow ow.

toomanycomics,
This is not good. You could have an infection. It would be smart for you to get medical attention ASAP, like tomorrow. You should probably be on antibiotics, too--but they'll take care of you at hospital.
