Burn treatment

Burn treatment depends on the severity of the burn. For minor burns, cool the area with running water, then apply a gentle, non-stick bandage. For more serious burns, seek medical attention immediately. Doctors may clean the wound, apply ointments, and dress it properly to prevent infection. Pain relief and, in some cases, tetanus shots might be necessary. Severe burns may require advanced treatments like skin grafts. Always monitor for signs of infection and follow up with healthcare professionals as needed. Staying hydrated and maintaining overall health is also important for recovery.
