What can you do if you burn your hand with boiling water?
Do not put ice on it or very cold water! Instead, put cool water on it and Unless it is a third-degree burn, the best treatment for ANY burn or scald is just to keep it constantly wet for eight or ten hours.The next step is to continue the cold water for at least 20 minutes. Submerging the burn is best, but if you cannot, then either run it under cold water or apply cold water-soaked washcloths repeatedly. Do not put any butter, grease, or powder on the burn. AFTER THE INITIAL 20 MINUTES OF COLD WATER Get pain relief. Take a dose of ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil). Check on it for dose instructions. This will both help the pain and decrease the inflammation. Calm yourself. Assess the burn. There are several degrees of burn. First degree burns. This is simply redness, with no blistering. This type of burn never leaves a scar if properly treated. Second degree burns. This is redness with blistering of the skin and is usually the most painful type on burn. With proper treatment, this type of burn almost never leaves a scar. NEVER pop the blisters. If it looks real nasty tomorrow or hurts more, go to an ER or see your doctor! The reason for burn damage is that your capillaries keep trying to expand to the max to get rid of the perceived heat. But if they all expand at once, they'll rupture, and that will kill a lot of cells and do a lot of painful damage. If you keep the skin wet and therefore cold, they won't rupture and you likely won't have blisters, peeling, or pain by morning. Other remedies mostly work because of the water they contain. Water works best and is free--but it has to be constant, because if you let the burn dry when it's not hurting a lot of damage will happen below your threshold of pain. Hope you feel better
How do I treat the scar and marks left from a hot water burn many years ago?
There are loads of different oils. I practically cooked the skin of my feet in 2013. I moved up a shoe size due to the scarring and thought that I would never wear a sandal again. Almost all the scaring was on top of my feet.Then however I had a bottle of canola oil I use as a make-up remover, cheaper and more effective that the regular stuff and I remember getting out of the tub thinking, what the hell it is worth a shot, and so after every bath I put canola oil on my scarring. Unlike Grape eed oil or Flax-oil canola absorbs into you skin pretty fast and you don't end up smearing your slipper, bedding and floors with oily footsteps. I really did not think it would work, but to my surprise.... The scarring lessened a little each week and by the time the 750 ml of canola was done the scarring was so hard to see if you are not seeking to see it you won't.Now there are probably better oils than the R26 ($2) bottle of canola that they use for cooking. Now the biggest scar where the pressurized water stream cooked a hole into my right foot does have a spot about the size of the hole that is a bit darker in color, but not by much and even with my ivory skin you have to really look to see it. I am still a shoe size larger and now have a lot of shoes I can't wear, but hey, my feet look great and that after being practically flash cooked. Now I have had burn marks before and I bought evening primrose oil and bio-oil to get rid of it and it worked but that stuff is expensive and possibly not needed.

Burn from boiling water - need help with scar!!!?
Hi again Me! Burns are not simple to treat and the M/W will cause water to explode as you now know. This happened to my neighbor's son and was not pretty. Infections nearly always develop in severe burns, application of Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia Oil) will help stop any itching and accelerate healing. One thing I use for scarring is a Triple Antibiotic Ointment which seems to help the scars fade pretty quickly and stops any secondary infections (which is also what Melaleuca Oil does). You may want to go back and re-check the site you wrote me about as they have a terrific cream for this and for itching. Feel better soon~!
How long does it take for blisters to appear on a burn?
If it is either too deep (3rd degree= all the way through the skin) or too superficial (1st degree=not into dermis,) you might not have blisters. Blistering can take a day or two to start showing. 2nd degree burns also vary in severity, but tend to have blisters form.
Boiling water burn on my right breast.?
I was at work and there is a curtain that separates the kitchen area from the service station. We're supposed to call out "in" or "out" when we go through the curtains. It was my second day and I hadn't gotten used to doing it all the time and I didn't call out. There was someone on the other side coming through who was carrying a glass of boiling water. (it had come out of one of those boiling water dispensers that you have at restaurants.) We bumped into each other and the water spilled down my shirt, onto my right breast. I sprayed it with burn spray right away but it was painful throughout the whole day. It turned bright red and slightly blistered. It's been 2 days and the places where the blisters were most severe are kind of scabbed. The area that got burned the worst is like dark purple and scarred I guess. Will this permanently scar? I know the skin there is really sensitive. Is there anything that I can do to help it? And do you think I need to go to the doctor? It's been a couple days and it's not really painful anymore, just ugly.
