First, cool the burn immediately under cool, running tap water for 10 to 15 minutes; do not use ice. For a mild, unbroken burn, apply a thin layer of generic petroleum jelly or pure aloe vera gel to keep the area moist. If the skin is slightly broken, a generic antibiotic ointment like bacitracin can help prevent infection. Cover the area loosely with a clean, non-stick sterile bandage. For pain relief, you can take over-the-counter paracetamol or ibuprofen. Avoid popping any blisters. If the burn covers a large area or is severely painful, please consult a doctor.
