First Aid treatment
First, remove the source of the burn:
- If the person is on fire, drop them to the ground and roll them or cover them in a blanket to put out the flames.
-
- If there is an electrical current, turn off the electricity.
-
- If it’s a chemical burn, take off any contaminated clothing and wash the affected area of skin with plenty of water, continuing for up to 60 minutes.
-
- For dry chemicals, brush off the chemicals before putting the burnt area underwater.
As soon as possible, put the burnt area under cool running water for at least 20 minutes:
- Don’t use ice (only apply water to the burnt area).
- Remove any clothing or jewellery near the burn, unless they are stuck to the burn.
-
- Don’t remove anything that is stuck to the burn.
Cover the burn:
- Use a light, loose, non-stick dressing. Use non-fluffy material. Plastic cling film is a good choice.
- If the burn is to an arm or leg, raise it whenever possible to reduce swelling.
Some things to avoid:
- Don’t touch the burn or apply ice.
- Don’t put a child with burns into a bath full of cold water.
- Don’t use any ointments, creams, lotions or fat on a burn. They seal heat in and cause more damage. If blisters develop, don’t pop them and visit your doctor in case they need to be removed.
