that's a second degree burn. you should probably [and by probably i mean definitly] atleast go to the doctors. i would strongly suggest you go to the er though, just like the person above me said. that faster you get it taken care of the more likely and the faster it will heal.

How bad? If the skin is broken, get to the ER. Otherwise, just cool it with cool water and wrap it in a sterile dressing. Use Vit E (pure Vit E nothing else) to prevent scarring.

Broken skin and swelling means go to the ER...NOW. To ease pain on the way to the ER, use an ice pack on healthy skin near the burn but not on it.

It depends on the degree of the burn. If it's too bad you should see a doctor. If it's a small burn, apply toothpaste to it and then some ice. It's a home remedy my grandmother did to me when I was little. i still use it because it works.

Aloe if you do not have a aloe plant go to CVS pharmacy and get 100 % aloe gel.
But if it is severe go to a doctor.

Put Aloe on them but if there blistering you need to go to the hospital. They can give you stuff for it.

I got something from the doctor called Silvadene cream. It is a mircle worker. Please go to the doctor and have him/her look at it so as to not get an infection.
