New Burn on Stomach?


Question:
I just burnt my stomach by leaning against a hot baking tray. There is now a 3 inch long line across my stomach. What can i use so it won't leave to much scaring when it heals

Answers:
Take the cocoa butter off ASAP! The best thing for a new burn is cool water (NO ice!). In your case, I'd try either laying in a cool tub of water, or using a wash cloth with cool water on it. Any lotions, creams, etc. will retain heat and actually make the burn worse. If it blisters, leave the blisters intact. If the blisters pop on their own, wash with soap & water, cover only that spot with neosporin or the like, and cover with a bandaid. Always consider going to the hospital.

Stop putting coco butter ! The greasiness is not could, may cause infection. Leave it alone. Do not cover it or pop any blister. You can apply ice packs. Consider seeing your doctor as well.
Hi

Lavendar oil is very good for burns. Its one of the few oils that doesnt need to be diluted and can be applied right onto the skin. It will take the sting out and also make it heal very quickly.

Its amazing stuff! Smells great and is also natural!

Get some, it has so many other uses when your done too. Springle a bit on your pillow at night its lovely - really calming too.
