Best Answer

This can result from exposure to high temperatures, irritants, chemical vapors, smoke, etc. The primary concern for a first resopnder in this situation is to maintain the airway. Intubation may be called for and should be performed before the airway swells in response to the burn. Note also with chemical burns that you'll need to take the proper steps to avoid injury yourself.
