  1. U CAN PUT SAV OINTMENT ON IT


  2. Try some lavender essential oil. If you don't have any, try honey - honey has amazing healing properties and should soothe it!

  3. Uhm,

    usually when I burn myself with the straightner (those are small burns mainly on my ears..and that's only happened once or twice) I leave it and once theres a scab i don't pick it.

    It does sting heaps for a few days but soon it goes away.

    You could try vaseline though since it would sting or anything.

    I'm not tooo sure though, sorry :P

  4. The first thing to do is run cool water over the area for at least 10 minutes. Cool, not cold. Do not apply ice, butter, or anything greasy to the area. If the burn is minor you can leave it exposed to the air. If you put anything on it, such as neosporin (has a built in analgesic for pain relief) then you may want to lightly bandage it to keep the cream on the burn. Use nonstick gauze for the bandage. If the burn blisters, do not break the blisters. If you see any signs of infection-- more redness, swelling, and pain then there should be, red lines extending away from the wound, pus, a foul smell-- go to the doctor.
