Cuttle L et al. – This articles reviews common first aid and pre–hospital treatments for burns (water—cold or warm, ice, oils, powders and natural plant therapies), possible mechanisms whereby they might work and the literature which supports their use. From the published work to date, the current recommendations for the first aid treatment of burn injuries should be to use cold running tap water (between 2 and 15 °C) on the burn, not ice or alternative plant therapies.
