What should I do first for burns and scalds?

Immediate Care for Burns and Scalds

Soak the area in ice water then apply some gauze that has been soaked (and lightly wrung out) in carrot juice! Repeat as needed and by the third day, most of the swelling and inflammation should be gone. (For severe burns, consult a doctor!)
