Three steps to treat a minor burn?

Minor burn treatment:

Step 1: Stop the burn:

- Keep the affected area under cool running water for 10-15 minutes or hold a cool, wet cloth over it.

- Remove tight clothing or jewelry that may constrict the affected area as it swells.

Step 2: Reduce the pain:

- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen to relieve pain and reduce inflammation.

Step 3: Protect the burn:

- Apply a thin layer of a sterile, antibiotic ointment like petroleum jelly to prevent infection.

- Cover the burn with a sterile bandage or clean cloth to protect it from friction and further damage.
