Ice pack burn, what do I do?

I was icing my shoulder with an ice pack without any cloth or anything because I was in a rush. Now I have this welt like thing on my shoulder and I have no idea what's going to happen or what I should do.

    Don't do anything with it, just leave it to heal naturally. You can take some ibuprofen or paracetamol it it is hurting you, but it will settle in a day or two. Just be careful in the bath or shower as the skin will be quite sensitive for a few days. If it blisters or the skin breaks down you should see your Dr.
