First Aid Remedies for Cuts and Burns

Some days do not go to plan, and that was exactly what happened last weekend. All my plans went out the window, which you can hear more about in the video below.

In the process, I also had a couple of first aid injuries. A burn and cut.

Here are my suggestions for first aid remedies for cuts and minor burns

Minor Burns
This is how I treat minor superficial burns. 

• Hold the affected area under cold running water immediately for 5 to 10 minutes, as appropriate to the injury
  
• Apply aloe vera gel to the affected area
  
• Take homeopathic Urtica Urens whilst the burn is healing, once or twice a day, according to how the burn is healing.
  

Minor Cuts and Grazes

• Clean the area

• If the wound is bleeding, hold a clean dressing with pressure, apply a plaster if needed.
• Take homeopathic calendula and hypericum once or twice a day according to how the wound is healing. If the wound is from a knife cut, take homeopathic staphysagria as well.
  

For any Injury

• Take homeopathic arnica. It is great for shock and trauma, bruising and helps with healing.

PLEASE NOTE - NEVER APPLY ARNICA CREAM TO OPEN CUTS,  WOUNDS OR BURNS

This does not replace medical advice. If you are unsure, seek help from the emergency services.
