Hi there!

When you have a first degree burn, you should rinse your burn in cool water for around 5 min, and take medication as needed.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

1st degree burns are comparatively milder than other burns, because they result in reddening, blisters, and pain of the outer layer of skin.

1st degree burns can be treated with many things. Typically they are treated with aloe vera cream or pain medication, such as Tylenol. Also, going over the burn with cool water may help ease the pain and the redness.
