Cool the burn. Hold the burned area under cold running water for at least 5 minutes, or until the pain subsides. If this is impractical, immerse the burn in cold water or cool it with cold compresses. Cooling the burn reduces swelling by conducting heat away from the skin. Don't put ice on the burn.
Cover the burn with a sterile gauze bandage. Don't use fluffy cotton, which may irritate the skin. Wrap the gauze loosely to avoid putting pressure on burned skin. Bandaging keeps air off the burned skin, reduces pain and protects blistered skin.
Take an over-the-counter pain reliever. These include aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others). Never give aspirin to children or teenagers.

lots and lots of cold water. ice pack till the heat goes away.
make sure it is only a 1st degree burn, skin only. a 2nd degree is getting to be blisters and into the tissue and you don't want to put anything on that., you want a DR to do it for you.
Basitration, 1st aid cream. cover it but let it air out, when you can, and know it will not get dirty

aloe is the best thing. Do not put butter on it as we are told to do as kids. First run ice cold water on it. When it dries use the aloe. Or you can get an ointment specific for burns.

Cold water right away. Then get Emu oil (available at any health food store). It takes the pain away immediately, and speeds the healing. It's amazing for burns and many othere skin disorders (i.e., rashes, acne, etc.).
