I have been playing minecraft Hardcore survival and I've gotten stuck on the same thing a few times...
I'll get a bad portal spawn in the nether (under and ocean of lava with no practical way up.). When i remake the portals despite being hundreds of block away from the original portal i still spawn in the same place and exit through a cave...
In theory it would be possible to ig up through an lava sea using pistons and very fast reflexes.
Now that i think about it i am tempted to try that out in creative.

"Really though, it shows the mindset of a Dwarf Fortress player that when running for you life from a 30-foot tall animate bronze colossus, your first reaction to a horde of fluffy bunnies is to grab some and throw them at it." - DF player
You need potions of fire resistance and several stacks of cobblestone. Build a 3x3 pillar up to the surface and then dig out the inside and put ladders there.
If by a chance you use Optifine it will be even easier as the mod makes lava transparent when under the surface.
And how exactly does he get those potions without magma cream or blaze rods?
Just go around 1000 blocks away. That should be far enough for a new portal to generate. Or take only a block of TNT, disable the portal and kill yourself. It'll make a new one somewhere the next time you go into the nether.

Over 90 % of the human population is stupid (in my honest opinion). Don't expect too much from them when you post something that actually involves thought.
If a portal spawns in lava, there is literally nothing you can do. You can't leave through the portal without entering the lava, and you might not make it back in time before you die. If you have full diamond armor, and some extended fire resistance potions, some blocks, ladders, and golden apples, you might survive making a path to the surface. I would recommend using mcedit to teleport you to safe land, and to move your portal to safe ground.
If you're in survival, just die and respawn. You'll lose your inventory, but not your world.

I didn't make the portal under ground or anything, it was on just normal height level for plains biome.
