chilli burn🥲

i decided to cut a chilli without gloves as i completely forgot to. afterwards, i washed my hands and thought nothing of it. i later went to play basketball and noticed a slight burning but ignored it (i thought the irritation was from playing basketball with freshly cut fingernails idk). i then came home to eat my chilli dish, chimichurri sauce, which is when the pain really began. that was around 9pm, it is now 12:45am and the burning sensation has only worsened.
i’ve tried washing with water and dish soap, milk, taking ibuprofen but nothing has worked.
if anyone has any suggestions please let me know as i can’t do this much longer.
