I see you are all talking about putting ice cubes on the burn. I was taught in a first aid class several years ago to the burned area in a pan of cold water and that even running water on the burned area can increase the pain. Was told to not apply anything that would put pressure on the area could cause more damage. Has this changed? I have been out of the work force for eight years now so have not had any recent training.
