Answers:
wrap a bit of cling film round it, this will stop the air getting on the burn which is the cause making the pain worse (this is what they do in hospital for burns)!. Or maybe some sudocream!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Always put it under running cold water as soon as possible!. The water is great for absorbing the heat and hydrating the area!. Keep it there for a long while!. The process as to why it heals is still somewhat unknown!. However, it helps with the depth of the burn, heals faster and helps with scarring!.

Avoid ice or icy water as it may do more damage!. Creams such as aloe vera and so on are not as good with burns as running water is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Should hold it under running cold tap immediately - not sure if it would help now!. Wouldn't do any harm!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
