When treating a 3rd-degree burn, it's critical to seek immediate medical attention, as this type of burn affects all layers of the skin and can lead to severe complications. While waiting for help, do not immerse the burn in water or apply ice, as this can worsen tissue damage. Cover the burn with a clean, dry cloth or sterile bandage to protect it from infection. Avoid using any ointments or home remedies on the burn until a healthcare professional can assess the injury.
