My friend's leg accidentally got burned yesterday when it touched the hot silencer of a scooter. The burn is really painful, and it's turned into a dark brown color with a bubble-like swelling. We're really concerned and wondering what the best steps...

Immediate Care* 1. *Cool the burn*: Run cool tap water over the burn for 10-15 minutes or apply a cool, wet compress. 2. *Remove clothing and jewelry*: Gently remove any clothing or jewelry near the burned area, as these can stick to the burn and cause further damage. *Wound Care* 1. *Apply topical antibiotic ointment*: Use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin to help prevent infection. 2. *Cover the burn*: Cover the burn with a non-stick, sterile bandage or dressing to protect it from further irritation and infection. *Pain Management* 1. *Over-the-counter pain medication*: Use over-the-counter pain medications like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) to help manage pain and reduce inflammation. *When to Seek Medical Attention* 1. *Severe burns*: If the burn is severe (covers a large area, is deep, or has penetrated through multiple layers of skin), seek immediate medical attention. 2. *Infection signs*: Monitor for signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, pus, or a foul odor. If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical attention. 3. *Difficulty moving*: If your friend is experiencing difficulty moving the affected area or is experiencing numbness or tingling, seek medical attention.
