Best Answer

First wash the wound with plain water.

If it's a burn you may want to hold it under cold water until the stinging stops.

For a burn apply aloe very.

For cuts and scraps apply an antiseptic or antibiotic cream and cover it with a bandage.

If it's a deep cut then you may want to get to an ER and have a doctor or nurse stitch it up.
