The burn has blisters or the skin is white-appearing or numb. These are symptoms of a more-serious sunburn.

🔥For First-Degree Burns (Affecting Top Layer of Skin)

1. Cool Burn
Hold burned skin under cool (not cold) running water or immerse in cool water until pain subsides.
Use compresses if running water isn’t available.

2. Protect Burn
Cover with sterile, non-adhesive bandage or clean cloth.
Do not apply butter or ointments, which can cause infection.
Maggot Therapy May Assist in Wound Healing

3. Treat Pain
Give over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol), or naproxen (Aleve).

4. When to See a Doctor
Seek medical help if:
🔹You see signs of infection, like increased pain, redness, swelling, fever, or oozing.
🔹The person needs tetanus or booster shot, depending on date of last injection. Tetanus booster should be given every 10 years.
🔹Redness and pain last more than a few hours.
🔹Pain worsens.

5. Follow Up
The doctor will examine the burn and may prescribe antibiotics and pain medication.
