Burn Care: The first step which you have taken is to run under cool water. Next, you want to remove any rings or tight items from the burn area. After that, apply burn ointment or Neosporin and wrap with an sterile pad then clingwrap. Don't break any blisters that have formed. Lastly take an OTC pain reliever such as acetaminophen. Check on the burn daily and rebandage. See a Dr for spreading redness/pus.
