*WASH YOUR HANDS* ....more like WEAR GLOVES! I had my first bout with "hot hands" last year. I diced up some pretty innocent looking cowhorn peppers and a couple other varieties from my garden. My first hint that there would be a problem was about 30 mintues later when I used the bathroom - small sizzle, dissipated quickly - no harm no foul, right? About 3 hours later the pain set in my hands. Pure agony. I couldn't believe how bad it hurt. The only thing I could do was put ice in a ziplock on my hands. That worked but you'd better not take it off. I believe it when they say drinking water makes it worse (when you eat something hot).
Anyway, I love hot stuff. I love it when my mouth is all fired up. Just something about it.
