What should I do immediately after a burn injury?
To minimize the pain, and if it’s a localized burn:
- Run cool water over it – but not cold water or ice
- Use cool compresses if they feel good
- Keep it open to the air. That means don’t use any ointments or wrap it in bandages. You want the area to cool as quickly as possible.
- Call a doctor immediately
What are the signs of a burn injury?
- Redness
- Swelling
- Pain
- Blisters
- Whitened skin
- Numbness to touch
- Headache
- Fever
If the accident was serious, see a doctor to check for unseen injuries.
- A burn may be deeper than at first appears
- Infection could be starting
- You may be in shock and not realize it
See a doctor if you’re in pain, or showing signs of infection such as:
- Swelling
- Pus
- Red streaks around the burn
When we’re in a state of shock we’re often unable to make sound judgments. So protect yourself and see a doctor.
