Apparently rockfish are venomous

The belief behind this remedy is that the acidic pH of urine helps break down the toxins and reduce pain,".... I just suck it up and take the pain. Nothing a few beers cant take care of.

Who knew that FM1 was a regular Nick Bronsted?! 

Here's what worked for me when I got spined: soak your hand in the hottest water you can stand for as long as you can stand it. Of course, you don't want to scald your hand, but get it close. Found that on the web along with some mumbo-jumbo about how the toxin breaks down with heat.
  Prevention: Wear gloves, I like the nitrile working gloves (not the medical ones), and when cleaning fish, thicker gloves.

Take the eyeball of the fish that spines you, squish it and rub it on the wound.

That's the old time remedy anyway. No idea if it actually makes a difference.

Yes, hair of the dog will reset your sanguine humor complexion. If that fails you could try a good bleeding or exorcism.

hehe...he heh  He said Sanguine!

If I touch fish slime, my hands swell up and blisters and it starts peeling off everywhere.

If I get poked by a rockfish, I die then come back to life 3 days later. It's terribly inconvenient.

The best remedy is some Tri-actin.
It typically fixes any issue.
Tri-actin is the generic name its short for
 Tri-actinlikeaman.

This works.  I have used it a few times

Leeches! You need leeches!

It'll get better, not gone, in a couple days. Hydrocortisone cream helps.

I tried that today. Got a blister, cried, and then went inside.
Still swollen but it's not as frozen. Either the hot water or using it helped. Thanks.

Pee on it.

Don't listen to him! Spray Windex on it.

My hand are too big to get in cider. Are you supposed to do just the fingers or the whole hand?
