The burned area should be kept under ________ till the pain eases.

Answer 1

1. We have to hold the burned area under cool running water to reduce the pain and temperature of that area.
2. Remove any item from this region before the swelling starts, otherwise later it will become difficult to remove the item.
3. Cover the area with a non-stick bandage so that the chances of infection can be reduced.
