Need Help - Anyone know what to do with a burn...
Took a bite of a pop-tart that was too hot and the filling burned my upper lip. Its a typical first degree burn that now, the next day, has a white blister covering the wound. I have a sad but important family event tomorrow, and would like to not have a big visible area on my lip which I would be asked about if I can. Does anyone have any advice?

All I heard about burns was to keep them clean and dry.

There are some burn creams out there as well.

Aloe plant is the best. Break the aloe plant, and rub the aloe fluid on the burn.

SILVERDINE but I think you have to get it from a Doctor. Keep it lubricated and moist . . not water or spit.

Mercury,

Thanks for your kind thoughts. It was an unexpected loss, so it is tough.

I want you to know I will update the horse racing thread this week. I miss talking to you guys, and the Derby is two short weeks away.

Alternate applications of fresh aloe vera and honey (organic, the darker the better) as often as possible.

Well, it is a little late for the first thing! Ice and cold water. Before you put any oil product on it, use aloe vera until there is no more sting. It will pull out the heat. Then, If you don't want scarring use a calendula/comfrey salve and if the burn is big bandage it to keep it clean. If you never let it scab, it won't scar.

But a wedding tomorrow? Hmm. Make up a good story.

you have to apply aloe right away for it to nullify the burn, otherwise once the damage is done you will just be treating the healing process.

if you catch a burn when it happensd and soak aloe into it, it will erase the burn.

i keep 2 big aloe plants at home and every kitchen should have one.

 Quoting: Sickscent



Yes, that is the best. Just one warning: Don't expose the part that has the Aloe vera to the sunlight because it 'stains' the skin and it is really hard to get rid of it.

Also be careful with your clothes.
I am talking about the real Aloe Vera the plant, not the ointments that are sold at drugstures.

 Quoting: Aminah


I agree. Raw Honey is so good they're now putting it in Bandaids :)! Antibiotic and Probiotic features.
Manuka is best, but reg. honey will do the same (darker the better. Make sure it's not diluted with water and sugar, pure honey only.

Vinegar is a trick for SUNBURN mixed with water, don't think it'll help with burns.
John 3:16 (Amplified Bible)
“For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten ([a]unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.

A prudent person foresees the danger ahead and takes precautions;the simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences-Proverbs22:3

Hey Calibob, hope you are okay today. hf

I am looking forward to some more horse racing discussion with the derby coming up. You definitely have a good thing going with that thread.

My good friend was posting on that thread but unfortunately his ISP is banned, he is frustrated that he can't post here. He can read, but not post. So that is too bad we have lost his contributions on the horse racing thread for now.
