Answer:

A. Run cool water over the burn for 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Yeah its totally leave it alone NO!! If you do this it is most likely going to increase your risk of skin cancer.
  2. If you wrap the sunburn its not going to do anything because if it was it might just irritate it. (I am not entirely sure on this one.)
  3. You NEVER "should never hold ice directly to your skin as that can cause pain and damage."

Have an amazing day everyone!!!
