How Do You Treat Burns With Herbal Home Remedies?
There are three levels of burns, and all are initially very painful. First degree burns cause pain and leave the skin red for about a week. Second degree burns result in blisters from damage to blood vessels and take longer to heal. Third degree burns are deep and cause total damage of the underlying tissues. While it is imperative to seek immediate medical attention for third degree burns – or second degree burns that cover large areas of the body or sensitive tissues – minor household burns can be treated at home with simple home remedies. Cold Water Running cold water over the burn immediately is not only a home remedy, but accepted by the medical community as the best initial measure for minor burns. Keep the burned area under the cold water or soaking in cold water until it becomes more comfortable. This will also prevent formation of a blister. Honey Scientific investigations have found that burns treated immediately with honey heal more quickly, hurt less and leave less scarring
