A member asked:

My daughter has a friction burn she got today on her arm from a half dry water slide. what can i put on it to help her? she is in a lot of pain.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Friction burn: Apply any lubrication such as aquaphore, Vaseline, A & D ointment, or aveeno (oatmeal) lotion, if it gets very red try OTC tripple antibiotic plus. I hope she feels better soon. If it gets worse see her pediatrician. Good luck.
