I stuck my hand in a toaster oven (I know that was stupid) and I burnt my hand. It is a red line across my hand about 2 inches. How can I make it go away?

You can't make it go away right now.

You burned the skin and skin takes time to repair itself.

Did it blister?

No it didn't blister. There is just a red line.
