Immediate treatment for extreme burns focuses on preventing infection, keeping the patient hydrated and keeping airways open. Burns that are deep or cover a large area of the body should not be treated at home with any first aid remedy but by a medical professional, some may require specialized burn care.

Is vanilla good on burns?

Vanilla is not a recommended treatment for burns. While it has a pleasant scent and some antimicrobial properties, it lacks the necessary healing properties to effectively treat burns. For minor burns, it's best to cool the area with running water, apply a sterile bandage, and use over-the-counter treatments specifically designed for burns. If the burn is severe, seek medical attention.
