No. The best treatment for a minor burn is to hold it under cold (not ice) water for a few minutes. Never put tooth paste, butter, creams, or anything greasy on a burn, since it can actually hold the heat in, and cause even further discomfort or injury. Use only medications specifically made for burns. If the burn is bad enough that it blistered the skin, treat it with an approved OTC medication for burns, and keep a dry bandage on it until the blister begins to heal. If the burn is severe, you need to see a doctor immediately.

How do you apply toothpaste to your face when trying to get rid of pimples?

Toothpaste is only good for pimples on your face. It dries them out. Toothpaste is not good for the skin. If you do use toothpaste for your pimples use white or clear toothpaste. Colored toothpaste will stain your face and make your face the color of the toothpaste for days. Also only put the toothpaste on the pimple. Not on your entire face. It will burn you until your eyes start to water if you do. Also be sure to not leave the toothpaste on for more than 5 minutes or else strong burning will occur.


How do you stop hot oil from burning skin?

Normally when you get a burn it's always good to put toothpaste on that burn it prevents it from making a bubble and swelling up. It may burn for a lil bit but you should be fine. It may make a scar after couple of days you can put coco butter to remove the scar. If the burn is really bad you should go to the hospital. They have special treatment for your burn.

Do you put toothpaste on burns?

Depending on the cause and degree of the burn different treatments should be used. In most cases running the affected area under RUNNING cold water for 10 minutes or until the affected area loses most of the burning pain sensation. Some people recommend that the area should then be wrapped in something to block infection, suitable materials are things like clingfilm or even a plastic shopping bag NOT any form of clothing or fabric as this will most likely stick into the burn and cause more problems later on, DO NOT use COTTON WOOL. This may be more for a third degree burn, but it may just be best to get immediate medical attention. No. For first and second degree burns run cold water over them. For third degree burns do not put them under cold water, seek emergency medical assistance immediately. Never put anything like toothpaste on a burn of any kind.
