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
Read more about treating burns and scalds at: www.nhs.uk/con...
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.

@@AbrahamThePharmacist can I put ice with tissue on my burn?
@@i.am.random no

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!♡
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..
45 minutes after I burn myself
“Don’t use ice”
Me: Oops
Omg Srry I wasn’t replying I never pay attention to the notifications bc I get so many but tysm for the likes
Lol I had to use ice it hurt soooo bad I burned my finger on the inside of an oven-
The oven was 350 degrees f. :>
Oh no
@@bluebxrries9937 i did too but it was 450😅
As I’m holding the ice right now!🧊🧊🧊🧊
-Don't put it in ice
Well that would been handy to know a few hours ago 😅
Dude I grabbed the pan with my barehand not thinking straight out of the oven that was on 425 degrees
I literally just did that ☠️☠️☠️🤣
Same. My fingers hurt.
i did that too but i used a towel and it didn't work too well
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!
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!
Interesting to know: we all watching this are in extreme pain… but are tough Cos we UA-cam’d it instead of clogging up the hospital
Ikr😅
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
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.
@@abrarw99 my finger feels dry idk what to do
@@shaheensjej it gets better as days go on
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.
Very helpful, Thank you so much
You're welcome!

who's watching this after just getting a burn.
Ouch! Hope you get well soon!
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’m in pain and it’s 4 am all i wanted was a cup of tea man
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.
Hello everyone Just wanted to tell you all that 🌟Jesus loves us all give your life to Christ, He died for our sins repent and trust in Him alone.His return is soon God bless you all Amen🙏🏾,Have a blessed day 😁❤
I love having ads while waiting for the video that's going to stop my wrist from hurting as badly
I just spilled boiling water on my hand. A cold can of white claw cooled it right down!
I spilled boiling water on my hand.😬 I immediately filled a bowl with ice & water.
I sat for 30 min with my hand immersed. It just turned a little pink.
Thank You
God Bless You
Glad I could help :)
If you got a burnt fingertip or any minor burn
Just mix a little egg white with coconut oil and make a jelly-like paste and apply to the burnt area it really helps.
I was frying donuts and accidently dipped my finger in burning hot oil,but this remidy helped.
(English is second language,if there are any mistakes plz ignore)
he literally said to not use greasy things
thank you thank you thank you...the egg was ISTANT HEALING..bless you
@@yvonneaaron7685 my pleasure💗💗
I was making a frozen spicy chicken patty in the oven and when it was done I took it out and realized it needed more time and I grabbed the baking sheet with my bare hand and I have a tiny blister on my finger now :(
@@savvy4 he also said some other things which I know aren’t accurate though sadly
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!
Spilt ramen noodles on my hand now I’m here 🤷🏾♀️
Same
Same
I was here last week, I’m back with a bigger burn
Ouch again! Hope my tips help
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?
I got a steam burn and i used cold water and it definitely helps as it cools it down and sort of numbs the pain in a way
Thanks for the tip Suzzy
Yeah
I got steam burn today and its been 2hrs since i've putmy hand in cold water but its not helping..its paining so badd😭i
Trust me run your hand under cold water and wrap it keep it numb
@@aarshitripathi1155 just dip it in ice water
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?
We need a video on stretch marks please 😔😔😔
On the list Ab, thanks for commenting
@@AbrahamThePharmacist it's been 2 months dude
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...
My hands have boiling oil all over it. I googled what to do. Thanks I may go E.R. in morning
I hope my tips help you get better!
I have burnt my face with apple cider vinegar, and it has turned white and left a white scar! Is there anyway I can get rid of this?
Is the scar still there? I just did the same thing with hot oil…
@@kiwiholmes3587 how is your scar now?
“Anything bigger then the hand of the person.”
Well, ain’t that ironic. My whole hand is scalded.
The way he swipe made me nostalgic about Savdhan India guy who used to swipe the footage after every single sentence
I was using a scooter and burned myself cause I had no shoes so the metal burned my foot so I’m watching this now
Well... I have been using like ten cubes of ice before watching this😂😂
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.
No. Use cold water. Stop the burn and reduce all heat. Turn your sink to cold and run it under it.
Welcome to pain world
Stay strong guys
And dont put too much cold water it will give relief for a moment but pain will not go when you get it out
Put elovera on it and thank me later
It will make wound numb and wont hurt
Just give it five minutes to dry out
I just grabbed the exhaust on a pressure washer 😃
I set a firework off on my back. Yeah I know it’s dumb
I think that why we’re all here 😭💀
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 👍
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!
time stamp is 1:32 for ppl with minor burns, run it under cold water asap for 20 mins
I’m crying in pain rn
I AM RIGHT NOW
Ive been litteraly tortured this whole day but I found a cure that nobody in any video mentionned. Put polysporin cream on the burnt area and put a band aid on it or cloth if its big. It will hurt the first hour or max first 2 hours but then it will stop
Not me coming here after my hot water bag exploded on my wrist and thigh
This is so useful for my child called Aiza thank you so much Mr
Glad my tips helped!
I scalded my leg 48 hours ago - I IMMEDIATELY put on some saniderm (second skin). I've had to change a few times as the clear fluids oozing out ruin the adhesive edges. Pain is minimal but still oozing. Hopefully this will heal up soon.
Please please please,prepare a video on " how to get rid of spectacles and how should we take care of our eyes?" Your all the videos are really helpful and informative. All the very best 😍👍👍👍
Noted and thanks for commenting
@@AbrahamThePharmacist thank you so much for your reply, I am very glad that I always get reply from you sir . You are my favorite doctor 😍
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BRU IM LITERALLY BRUNING
If you have a burn and the skin is not open or broken, After you do the 20 minutes water cooling, you can mix cornstarch and aloe 🌿vera in a small cup, once it is a paste, apply it to the burn area to cool it down in 15 - 20 minutes, then wash it off.

I was roasting marshmallows with my friends tonight, and the roasting stick caught on fire and one of my friends grabbed the handle frantically to try to put out and accidentally flung burning plastic on me and now I have a couple of patches that are a little blistered but not too red so I'm browsing UA-cam to try and find out how to treat them. Lmao, fun times 😂😜💥🔥👍🏽
My dad gave us a first aid kit that he shipped to our home and I finally used those items for good use
It would be better if there are pictures shown too. 😊😊😊
I spilled scalding hot coffee on my lips, chin and chest. Nothing too serious but now I have a nasty blister on my chin and I need to get rid of it 😩
freaking spilled boiling water in to my feet. Still burning after an hour
I got burnt by a piece of metal.
No first Aid was offered or thought of due to where we were.
Now realising it had continued to burn as it was not cooled down.
Now I have a green circle in the middle of a raised very red area around the size of a UK 10p piece.
I am putting burn cream on it.
I was told 6 days later when I went to my chemist to keep an eye on the granulation (raised grainy feeling very red area around the green) if it gets bigger I have an infection.
Apparently the green is new skin forming.
The area is still painful and at times very itchy.
What do you think?
The place I was in offered no advice or first aid and I was too shocked to think of it.
A piece of metal lodged inside my clothing when I was wearing a high neck blouse so the metal was there for a while as I did not want to burn my fingers and had nothing to get it out.
The burn is on the chest wall near the bone not on fatty or soft tissue.
3 days after the incident I asked about safety arrangements in the business I was burnt in and was told I should have been helped but no advice given.
Still hurts now 7 days later.
I watched this after doing everything you told me not to do….
Hope my tips help

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
