Answers:
I usually get a bag of ice then wrap it in a towel and then get a long bandage or cloth and gently wrap it around your burn!. I hope it works for you!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

For a small burn, mix one or two teaspoons of sodium bicarbonate with a very small amount of water, just enough to make it into a smooth paste (not runny)!. Put the paste directly onto to burned area and leave it for some minutes!. It will quickly make the pain subside!. When it begins to dry out and fall off, replace it with fresh wet paste!. Do this for at least 5 -
10 minutes or more, as required!.It not only stops the pain but also promotes apid healing without scarring!. It can also be used to relieve and reduce swelling in the case of insect bites, in conjunction with anti-histamine tablets!. This is a time-honoured Australian remedy, and in my personal experience works far better than any burn cream or ointment on the market!.

I had severe burns on four of my fingers with constant pain and burning!.I went to the hospital and a burn doctor told me to apply white toothpaste, not jell kind so I applied a white paste toothpaste to them liberally, and let it stay overnight!. The next morning, no more burning or pain and the blisters had gotten a little smaller!. Not for burns that are open!

Oh my gosh! The same thing happened to me except with a flaming hot marshmallow!. I had trouble falling asleep because it really hurt so I put some ice in a bag and I put my finger under the bag and eventually I fell asleep! I hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com
