Answers:
If you develop blisters don't pop them for any reason, the fluid inside is filled with proteins that will help with the healing of the skin!. Keep the area clean!. The best thing to do is to let the healing do its own thing, don't apply any of the old wives tales remedies such as toothpaste!. There is a cream on the market that might be able to help with the healing, its called Silvadene and there is a link for more information below!. Watch for any signs of infection such a discharge, increased redness or swelling!. Good Luck! Www@Answer-Health@Com
you did good by using water and not ice!. ice can cause more damage!. the best thing to do is keep it clean and don't put anything like neosporin or anything like that on it!. just keep it clean!. if it does blister up don't pop the blister just put a bandaid on it Www@Answer-Health@Com
Aloe vera gel! It will help re-moisturize the skin, and cool the skin deep down!. However, it may still have a small blister!. It shouldn't scar, though, unless the burn is severe!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
