If you're trying to make homemade salsa, a little jalapeno goes a long way. If you accidentally use too much jalapeño and take a big bite and your mouth, eyes, nose, lips and tongue is on fire, do not I repeat do NOT put ice on it. Bad, bad, idea. DO eat yogurt directly out of the container. Do eat bread. Do drink milk. Do NOT put ice on your lips.
Hours later if your eye itches, do NOT rub it. If you do, run to your fridge and pour yourself a glass of milk and pour directly into eye.
I would like to thank Dorothy and Nicole C for googling this information for me when I couldn't see. Hypothetically speaking of course.
I'm going to Starbucks now.

Google??? I was speaking from experience.
That was a very important public service announcement. You have done your good deed for the day. Lena
Ohhh, reminds me of all those years of my childhood eating boiled crawfish...and hours later rubbing my eyes, even though I had scrubbed the heck out of my fingernails. I spent many a time leaning over the bathroom sink bathing my eyeballs. Not fun...
it was my pleasure to help in your time of need lol
OK, I'm so not kidding... the next time this happens (and you get halapeno in your eye) put BOTH feet in cold water.
You think I'm crazy... but it truly works.
Step into a bathtub, run cold water over your feet, and instantly your eyes will feet better.
And when they do... which they will... you can thank the man from Ghana who told me that trick. I've tried it, and so have my parents.
God bless!
I meant "feel" better.
