Question
My baby accidentally got burned, fortunately, it wasn’t a large area. After rinsing it under cold water for a while, it was fine, and no blisters formed. However, I’m still a bit scared. What are some quick treatments for burns?
Answer
Immediately immerse the burned area in clean tap water. Quickly lower the temperature of the hot water to prevent further damage. Typically, rinse under running water for about half an hour, then seek medical treatment to effectively reduce the severity of the burn. If the burn is just a blister, do not break the blister and apply burn ointment after disinfection.
