: Depends on the type of skin burn: First degree burns are red, painful and dry but no blisters. No ointment. Apply a hydrocolloid pad for pain relief.

Third Degree burns appear white, charred and painless since the nerves are destroyed. See a DR for these.

Set limits: Sexual behavior should be mutually delightful.  You need to tell your BF what limits you expect.  He probably does not know what your end points might be so you need to advise him.  He may have his own limits.   If he persists in overstepping what you are comfortable with, then you might consider another BF.
