Question
What emergency measures should be taken if a child accidentally gets burned?
Answer
If a child unfortunately suffers a burn, the first priority is to immediately immerse the affected area in running cold water and use iodine solution for disinfection. If blisters form at the burn site, do not break them to avoid infection. Apply ice packs or cold towels to the burn area to prevent the injury from spreading. After completing the initial first aid, the child should be quickly taken to the hospital for professional treatment.
