no vasoline
if you can remove dead tissue do it... but it does hurt. cover the burn with paraffin wax or aqueous cream (which is mostly paraffin) reapply every 4-6 hours.
the paraffin is like a liquid scab - softer and less ugly - but does the same job - protects and seals the damaged area
good luck - take something (panadol/tylenol) if you are gonna try clean it up - paraffin will help soften it - pick it off 12 hours from now - should be easier
