Burns: make sure all debris is removed from the wound. Use soap and water with gentle friction to clean the wound at least twice a day and more ii you are in an unclean environment. Silvadine is an ointment that is helpful for burns. But if you are allergic to sulfur, use bacitracin. Need antibiotics if redness expands around the wound.
