1st Degree burn at my medial right feet..

Last Sunday September 02, 2012, after we went to the church, me and my husband decided to go to Brgy. Lika, Mlang, where my husband grown up when he was young, to put some fence made of wood to our small piece of lot and to inspect the rice farm of my husband if how many more days the rice will harvested. We went there by riding with a motorcycle with 45minutes travel from Kidapawan to Mlang. The sky was not good, it was gray and a few hours the rain will start to fall that day. We were lucky, as we travel, the rain didn't start to fall. As we get there, I greeted my niece and my nephew at my mother in law house, I greeted everybody who was there, except my husband who still mad at his brother and sister in law. We started to fence the area, as we finish, me and Bon2x ( My husband) decided to go and see the rice farm my husband been procreate from his loan as a police, this is also one of our source for our daily needs. A we ride with his motorcycle together with nanay (my mother in law) we pass by a small damp hole at the center of the road, we slip at that hole and fall, me as the center of two person (my husband and my mother in law), I was left stumble together with the motorcycle, my right foot intercalate inside the turning wheel in front of the motorcycle, the engine was to hot that my right lateral foot start to hurt because of the heat spill on my foot, I was agonizing with pain, we stop, we couldn't find any house, so we still pick the motorcycle and we continue to our way going to the farm. As we get there, I just keep restraining the pain I felt that day. As Bon2x finish checking and inspecting the rice, I insist my husband that I really wanted to go home to heal the burn at my foot. We ride back at home, I wash it quickly and hastily with mild soap then rinse and then I myself pour an alcohol solution on it, I was shouted with to much pain I feel. I said to myself, I need to do this and I have to because it complicate into infection. Then I pour a large amount of betadine to help area cleanse from dirt. I rest, I elevate my right leg to prevent from swollen and imflammation. I still agonizing and crying with pain.
Until now, the burn area is still on pain , as I stand, as I walk and I as I sit, I touch the surrounding, I feel heat and redness. I Stayed in my room still and still thinking, what should I do with my foot. Still in swollen and pain. I text my husband and blame him for this.
After I wash my laundry, I perplexed if I'm going to take a bath or I just lay in bed to relieve the pain, but my intuition coarse me that I really need to take a bath to leasten the infection, as I washed the affected area, I bite my tougue to control the pain I felt. Then again, I cleanse it with alcohol and betadine, I lay on my bed, then elevate the affected leg, then crying myself to relief the pain.
