Then, cool the skin with a moist compress. Don't put ice, butter or anything else directly on the burned skin. Clean the skin gently with mild soap and tap water. Take acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil]) for pain. Simple burns involving only the very surface of the skin do not need dressings.” |
