Generally aloe vera oil and vaseline with some peppermint oil will handle well in burn situation, Vaseline gauze keeps the wound from being caught with airborne bacteria and aloe vera helps accelerate the tissue repairs for the burn well. The Ancient Egyptians applied honey to the burns and they have been doing right up to the ancient Greek. View Entire Thread

I had scalded my hand while making homemade jam and fortunately my father-in-law was present and had me soak it in egg white and then drenched a paper towel and placed it on my hand and wrapped my hand in a small towel for 30 minutes. The pain was immediately gone and did not return. I have no marks from the burn either. MIRACULOUS!
