Best Answer

Putting ice on a burn can cause serious circulation problems and can actually cause further burning. The best thing to do is to run the burn site under cold water until you no longer feel heat radiating from it. It is also important to keep the burn clean and covered to reduce chances of infection.

If there is no running water do you wash your laundry in a laundry tub?

Some laundry tubs do hookup to plumbing supplies, and hand wash-only clothing can be washed this way. However, laundry tubs can also be used if there is no access to running water, by using whatever source of water is available. If water is not clean, some will choose to boil it before using it to wash clothing, and this will also allow you to wash clothing in hot water if needed.
