We had the Paramedics come to a blacksmiths meet and give a talk on burns and what to do.Don't use the home remendys butter, mustard,or foil ointment or such. They seal the heat in and cause it to burn deeper!They told us that any burn thats not a 3rd degree hold under cool water or use an ice pack, and watch for infection,if you have to wrap it use guase and wrap loosely. 3rd degree see a doctor!
