Overview
Primary Prevention
- Install household smoke alarms. Check and change batteries regularly.[3][4][5]
- Fireworks[6]
- Flame-retardant materials[7][8]
- Low ignition propensity cigarettes[9][10]
- Reducing self-harm: teach children about fire safety and the hazards of matches and fireworks.[11][12]
- Keep children from climbing on top of a stove or grabbing hot items like irons and oven doors.[13][14][15]
- Kitchen stoves and lamps[16],Turn pot handles toward the back of the stove so that children can't grab them and they can't be accidentally knocked over.[17]
- Place fire extinguishers in key locations at home, work, and school.
- Remove electrical cords from floors and keep them out of reach.
- Know about and practice fire escape routes at home, work, and school.[18]
- Set the temperature of a water heater to 120 degrees or less.[19][20]
Lifestyle and home remedies(secondary prevention)
To treat minor burns, follow these steps:[21]
- Cool the burn. apply a cool water (not cold) , wet compress until the pain eases. Don't use ice. Putting ice directly on a burn can cause further damage to the tissue[22].
- Remove rings or other tight items. Try to do this quickly and gently, before the burned area swells.
- Don't break blisters. Fluid-filled blisters protect against infection. If a blister breaks, clean the area with water (mild soap is optional). Apply an antibiotic ointment. But if a rash appears, stop using the ointment.
- Apply lotion. Once a burn is completely cooled, apply a lotion, such as one that contains aloe vera or a moisturizer. This helps prevent drying and provides relief.
- Bandage the burn. Cover the burn with a sterile gauze bandage (not fluffy cotton). Wrap it loosely to avoid putting pressure on burned skin. Bandaging keeps air off the area, reduces pain and protects blistered skin.[23]
- Take a pain reliever. Over-the-counter medications, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others), naproxen sodium (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), can help relieve pain.
- Consider a tetanus shot. Make sure that your tetanus booster is up to date. Doctors recommend that people get a tetanus shot at least every 10 years.
Whether your burn was minor or serious, use sunscreen and moisturizer regularly once the wound is healed.[24][25][26]
