Burns

1. You can prevent a lot of tissue damage by immediately plunging the burned area into cold water and leaving it there until the skin has cooled.

2. Burns are prone to infection, and must be protected with a clean, non-fluffy dressing.

3. Bandage the area lightly. If several layers of skin are damaged, the victim may go into shock.
