Is there a quick way to treat burns?

Patient's question:

The baby accidentally burned himself, but luckily it wasn't a large area. After rinsing with cold water for a while, it healed without blisters. However, I'm still a bit scared. Do you have any quick methods for treating burns?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, immediately rinse the burned area with tap water thoroughly. Quickly cool the boiling water to prevent further damage. It is usually cleaned under running water for about half an hour. At this point, the hospital will provide further treatment, and the severity of the burn will be effectively reduced. If the burn treatment is only blisters, it will not be too severe. Do not break the blisters. After disinfecting with disinfectant, apply burn ointment immediately.
