WHAT IS A BURN OR SCALD:
Burns and scalds are damage to the skin usually caused by heat. Both are treated in the same way.
A burn is caused by dry heat - by an iron or fire, for example. A scald is caused by something wet, such as hot water or steam.
Burns can be very painful and may cause:
• Red or peeling skin
• Blisters
• Swelling
• White or charred skin
The amount of pain you feel is not always related to how serious the burn is. Even a very serious burn may be relatively painless.
TREATING BURNS AND SCALDS:
To treat a burn, follow the first aid advice below:
• Immediately get the person away from the heat source to stop the burning
• Cool the burn with cool or lukewarm running water for 20 minutes - do not use ice, iced water, or any creams or greasy substances like butter
• Remove any clothing or jewellery that's near the burnt area of skin, including babies' nappies, but do not move anything that's stuck to the skin
• Make sure the person keeps warm by using a blanket, for example, but take care not to rub it against the burnt area
• Cover the burn by placing a layer of cling film over it - a clean plastic bag could also be used for burns on your hand
• Use painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen to treat any pain
• If the face or eyes are burnt, sit up as much as possible, rather than lying down - this helps to reduce swelling
• If it's an acid or chemical burn, dial 999, carefully try to remove the chemical and any contaminated clothing, and rinse the affected area using as much clean water as possible

WHEN TO SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE:
Depending on how serious a burn is, it may be possible to treat it at home.
For minor burns, keep the burn clean and do not burst any blisters that form.
More serious burns require professional medical attention.
You should go to a hospital A&E department for:
• All chemical and electrical burns
• Large or deep burns - any burn bigger than the injured person's hand
• Burns that cause white or charred skin - any size
• Burns on the face, hands, arms, feet, legs or genitals that cause blisters
If someone has breathed in smoke or fumes, they should also seek medical attention.
Some symptoms may be delayed and can include:
• Coughing
• A sore throat
• Difficulty breathing
• Facial burns
People at greater risk from the effects of burns, such as children under 5 years old and pregnant women, should also get medical attention after a burn or scald.
The size and depth of the burn will be assessed and the affected area cleaned before a dressing is applied. In severe cases, skin graft surgery may be recommended.

I spilled tea, HOT tea on my leg and stomach. It hurts so badly, it took me a second to process what happened, but when I did I screamed, ran, it hurt and still does. I don’t know how I’m gonna sleep tonight..
I'm a pharmacy student from Pakistan. But I've seen people saying that it's not a good profession and is not much appreciated around the globe. But whenever I watch your videos I get hope
Don't be discouraged. The world needs you guys!♡
Very helpful, Thank you so much

Same. My fingers hurt.

Just now me too
Me too
My husband absolutely insists on skipping water and covering the area in sugar. I can't find anything on it but it seems to bring some relief for more minor burns. This time I dumped a pot of boiling water all over my foot and it's not! Helping!
Curling wand “tapped” my shoulder blade briefly and I just wet a paper towel with cool water and held it on for a bit, gently wiped off my body lotion, and put antibiotic ointment on it. Not sure what else to do now?
Advice: Please, Please, find tap water immediately, as it can be life-saving. My burned area that is flushed with water was recovered within 1 week and did not feel pain anymore except some red color really quickly. While the area that is not flushed in time lasted 3 weeks, got blisters, and will get long-lasting scars.
I was making hot cocoa and the water was boiling hot and spilled it on my chest.. This helped
The same happened to me today but with the hot cocoa and not the water
Same but i was making pasta lol how is it? U still hve the scar?
Is there still a scar?
Man I am feeling the pain, its really really hurting!
Hi doctor, I got burned by hot oil and got a scald, have some blisters now. Have been cooling the skin following the instructions in the video. Should I apply any ointment at all (aloe vera jelly maybe)? When can I start applying anti-scarring ointment? Thank you!
Bro I need your suggestion! Three months ago, I was second degree burn in an electric sparks. After 15 days doctors discharged me from burn hospital, and doctor has suggest me only coconut oil for burning skin. Now after 3 months I am facing pain in my burn skin. Recovery is slow. Hair is growing but skin is still red. Please suggest me what is more important in this condition like exercise, coconut oil, or other oil, sun light, cover burn area , continue wash burn area, if other medicines please sir suggest...
Great advice! What about burn aftercare? For example dressing it? When would you consider covering a burn? What specific type of dressings are suitable for burns?
Nice question. I should have discussed this more in the video. Will do an additional responding to comments on this :)
What a POS! Can't answer your question without doing another video?
Excellent question everyone came here for those answers and he still didn't mention 1 thing!.. DISLIKE HIM AND HIS VIDEO!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist did you make a video for aftercare ?
@@AbrahamThePharmacist can you link the aftercare video?
Why did I touch the stove.
I touched to top part of a zippo 🤦🏽♂️ I tried to push it down after burning off the runoff fuel 😂
GURL SAME
Why did I step on iron
Airfryer for me
SAMEEEE
I burned two of my fingers in my toaster yesterday and I got treated in the worst way possible, they treated me with everything you said I should not do.
I never knew the burns would be this hurtful but its good that i always hide my feelings so i kinda have a calm look on my face 🤣
Yeah I burned my hand bc there was a marshmallow roasting incident and I literally reacted like I was just giving a book report or something equally as boring 😂
I have this (mebo ointment) it says that its for burns should i apply it?
Very helpful for my project!
Glad I could help!
Just burned myself on a flat top grill and frantically looked up "I just Burned myself what do I do." And this vid was the first. The pain is subsiding now. Thank you
Glad I could help!
@@AbrahamThePharmacist the blister is stiff now. Is that normal? I hope so. Ima keep on applying Aloe
@AbrahamThePharmacist
During quarantine I've burnt my cheek while waxing (double waxed the same spot twice accidentally) been more than a year now and the skin isn't the same. I've tried everything, been to a dermatologist as well but nothing is helping.
Any recommendations/ suggestions?
Please update
Hi, I just came back from my Dofe trip for 2 days and my whole face is burnt and my neck and when I go into the shower it stings like hell until It where’s off.
I hope my tips help!
Safe to use manuka honey or aloe vera gel on a hot boiling water burn?
Burned my hand when boiling water from noodles got over my hand. It is very red and burning at the moment. Did put my hand in the shower head cool water for a bit. What do I do next? It's really red.
Amazing effort.
Thanks for sharing
So nice of you
I kept warm tea bags under my eyes for like 3 minutes but it’s hot and the red won’t go away.
I'm a 52-year-old African-American woman and I have always gotten heat rash every summer since I was a little girl. This year I got the rash as normal on my forearms and when I started scratching them, they turn to raised burn looking scars. I've had them about a week now and I've been putting vitamin e oil and also some aloe vera gel on it but they've never turned to raised scars before. Normally the rash just goes away when I stay out of the Sun and out of the heat. It's very bizarre. I never really thought about going to the doctor but I'm not sure exactly what I should do. Should I just give it more time to heal and go away?
I have lupus and I get like that in the sun too. worth a shot to check it out
Great and informative video.
Thanks for sharing information..
Glad it was helpful!
If you have an air pocket on your burn, what do you do? Do you pop it?
Thank u! I was doing everything wrong! Got a scald with hot water, and I put my hand under cold cold water then i put this greasy stuff on it, after i saw this part i washed off, then followed instructions! Doesn’t hurt tooo much but i learned soooo much better im going to continue watching! Ur AWESOME too!!!!!
Glad it helped! Sending awesome vibes!
Is it ok to put vicks camphor,mentol,eucalyptus oil?
Did you make a video for after care ? I’d love to know as all I’ve been told is to apply Vaseline and air it out but feel like it sticks to my socks ect
Very helpful advise! This happened to me like 3 years ago with a hot water bottle on my leg and then I went to the hospital to get it checked and now it’s better but I can still see the scar!
Ouch sorry to hear about this Salandal, hope you're well
@@AbrahamThePharmacist yep I’m well, sending awesome vibes to you! :)
@@AbrahamThePharmacist just watched your video sir. Ex army here… currently running cold water on leg. Was about to return to work in ten mins then I see the part where “if it’s larger than 20% of the body. 🤔
It is my entire leg which got covered in boiling water. I was quick to get running water on it though. I don’t wanna clog up the hospital unnecessarily but you do clearly state to go if it’s that size. I feel like I probably am ok but now questioning myself. Thanks for the video it’s appreciated and updated 👍
It really helped me ,thank you!
Glad my tips helped!
Ugh, I have a little blister on my finger from grabbing a hot grill flipper at work. I didn’t realize how much it was burned at the time, so I didn’t run it under water! The blister is only the size of an apple seed or two, but it’s really tough/leathery and it looks oddly deep. There’s no pain, but it looks so strange. It’s been a few days and it’s not going down...
What did it look like and how long did it take to heal
After a year, what is the update
After 2 years did you die?
I didn't know about using the ice until its to late as I use my ice pack but will the burn go as it comes and goes at the moment

Interesting to know: we all watching this are in extreme pain… but are tough Cos we TH-cam’d it instead of clogging up the hospital
Ikr😅
I’ve experienced burning many times (on finger) well what i learnt is firstly put cold water on it for some time then just sit down or get busy with something i know it will hurt u alot but trust me just take the pain for some time then u will get used to it... whenever u cant stand the pain anymore blow on it or put cold water again and when u sleep and wake up the next day it will be better IMPORTANT NOTE: after a few days a ball will appear on ur burnt finger or place whatever happens DO NOT POP IT IM WARNING U FROM NOW CUZ IF U DO U WILL WITNESS HELL 2.0 😂 but im serious do not pop it and yea good luck
Yep hell 2.0 is a lot worse trust him n don't pop it
I just accidentally spilled boiling hot water on my left thumb and its hurting like hell, like its stinging. The skin's melted away a bit. The pain's reduced in the last 3 hours but hasn't stopped yet. Should I keep the burn open to air heal or should I put a dressing on top of it?
Update: it's been 20 days since I burned my thumb. Now there's no pain whatsoever and a new skin's formed already. Didn't put any ointment/dressing on it after the first day. It helped reduce the pain greatly.

I burnt myself with a hot glue gun and it burns so bad a little skin came off and i got a cleanix and put some water on it and put it on my finger, is that a problem? Also will i get infection? Also i put a bandage on it
Would this apply for bleached hair?

How are you dude? I'm having the exact same experience now. I hope you recovered well.
@@tulips7465 hey, thanks, I recovered well from it. The pain reduces after a couple of days. I applied some burn cream on the burn on the first day and it helped quite a fair bit to soothe the pain. It took around 3 weeks for fresh new skin to develop. I hope you have a very quick recovery!
So can we not use petroleum jelly? Because I just put that on my hand that I just burned with ramen broth…
