Numbness is normal for second degree burns, which it sounds like you may have. You can't feel it because you're losing that skin and the layer beneath it. On the plus side, it sounds like it's going to happen fairly cleanly, without any open wound.
Obviously I'm going to recommend you go to a doctor but, if not: your biggest risk is infection. So don't pick/peel it, at least until it begins sloughing off on its own. Clean it and apply neosporin or some other topical antibiotic twice a day. Get some finger gloves for like $3 at wal-mart, and use them while you work, trying to avoid any of the stations that involve submerging your hands in liquid.
If you even think you have sign of infection, you have to go to a doctor. Amputation will cost you more in the long term.
A finger "condom" may be less awkward.

I think these were from the office supplies section at Martin's. Here are some sold on Amazon.
