You poor thing Tegan. It might have felt worse for a couple of reasons:
* You might have had the water a little warm which put heat back into it (often not noticed until you get out)
* the environmental temp might have made it feel hotter therefore burning.
* If you were standing near something that was putting off heat, it may have affected it.
* you may have scrubed/aggrevated the skin in the shower which can cause a sensation similar to burning. This is actually a good thing in terms of burns because it means the nerve endings are still in tact. Even the feeling of the water hitting the burn site can be enough to do it.

If you're still unable to get the heat out by morning (or if you have a GP clinic open late tonight), I'd pop in just for a check up for the burn sites. Hang in there - hope it feels better soon.
