Home remedies to treat second degree burn on hand fastly . last night my hand got burned while baking , applied tooth paste and petroleum jelly. plz recommend something to treat this fast and to remove burn scar also?

SUGGESTIONS: If it is a true second degree burn, will blister, but unlikely to leave significant scar. Suggest next time you get a kitchen burn, assuming it is minimal, apply ice locally for 10-15 minutes. (Seems to work amazingly well in most cases, and actually can reverse much of the immediate signs.)
