Today, I accidentally clamped my hair straightener down on my ear. Eleven hours later, it still feels like I have a burning, swollen fireball hanging off the side of my head. FML

I'm no doctor, but I've heard ice is not the best solution.

The ice will increase the burning sensation before actually cooling it off.

Someone told me to put honey on a burn...it will reduce scaring too...then someone told me to use toothpaste on a burn...try either...

112- I can attest to that, toothpaste works. It has a cooling effect.

Wouldn't the acid in toothpaste make the burn worse and sting more?

I agree with 131. And whoever said mustard I think that would burn too. But I think honey would be a good idea, never heard that before.

Aloe Vera is the best for anything from sun burns to flying bacon grease burns and even hair straighten burns. It takes the burning sensation away and speeds up the healing. Also it is 100% Natural, comes straight from the plant.

Ice wrapped in a towel is fine, but you don't want direct contact.

Also, I'm not sure you want to cover it in honey, the heat needs to be able to escape or you'll further damage the tissue.

yeah...it works though. A nurse told me about the toothpaste..

in first aid they just said cool running water and wrap loosely in cling film or a clean cloth then go see your doctor :O

yogurt! plain yogurt works for most burns takes out the temperature.

I can see using honey once the you've cooled off the tissue affected by the burn, but applying it just after the burn seems like a bad idea.
