Depends on degree &: Cold water rinse is the first thing you do if the burn is not severe or extensive . You can take over the counter pain med for burning pain. The treatment depends on degree of burn and the surface area. If it is 1st or 2 nd degree burn you can use a non adhesive dressing. Never pop the blisters as it can get infected. Severe and extensive burns require to be treated by doctors . So go to ER
