How to give first aid correctly after burns and scalds?

What should I do after scalding? Bian Xiao was scalded by hot water at the weekend, and the whole family swore. Some people say that a little sesame oil will cure you in a moment. Some people say that toothpaste is cool and fast. Others said to put some soy sauce on it. Last time I was burned, I put soy sauce on it, and I recovered the next day. I really want to shout in my heart, "I just got burned and I'm not ripe yet. Why do I put so much seasoning on my hand!" " "So I silently put a layer of burn cream on my hand! Today, let's talk about what to do after burns.

First of all, talk about some common misunderstandings after ironing!

1. Do not apply soy sauce after burns. First of all, soy sauce contains salt, which will dehydrate and shrink wound cells and aggravate the damage. Secondly, soy sauce is not sterile, and if it is not further treated, it may cause infection. Thirdly, the dark brown color of soy sauce covered the wound, which affected the doctor's judgment on the depth of the wound.

2. It is also wrong to apply ice after scalding. High temperature can harm the skin, and low temperature can also cause harm. After burns and scalds, the damaged skin has lost the protection of epidermis, so it can't be directly iced to avoid frostbite.

3. No pain means that the condition is not serious, and no pain in the wound means that the injury is serious. Because boiling water burns the epidermis of the skin first, the pain nerve is broken before it feels pain. Therefore, if you can't feel the pain, it means that you may have been badly burned.

4. Applying the medicine directly to the burn wound will stimulate the wound and cause severe pain. If you put the medicine on gauze and then gently stick it on the wound, you can achieve the same goal without severe pain.

In other words, whoever did it after I was burned was wrong. Here's what I should do correctly after being burned. Small and mild burns and scalds can be treated in the following ways. If it is a large area burn, please go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the illness. First aid methods for deep burns or deep burns with an area less than 1% are as follows:

1. Avoid the heat source immediately and quickly.

2. Rinse with cold water, or soak the burned (scalded) limbs in clean cold water, so rinse or soak for 15_30 minutes until no pain or burning sensation is felt. Cold compress can be applied to trunk or other parts to relieve pain and limit the development of injury.

3. If you wear close-fitting clothes when you burn (scald), wash them with cold water or cut them with scissors and remove them carefully.

4. After rinsing with clear water, apply scald cream locally, which can be covered with plastic wrap.

5. If there are blisters on a degree burn, try not to crush the blisters, and don't cut off the epidermis if the blisters are broken.
