You need to determine whether you have a first, second, or third degree burn.

Read all of that and it will tell you the appropriate first aid steps as well as whether you should call 911.

You can get some special creams for your local drugstore that help reduce the pain from burns.

Run under a cold tap some more, it should be a MINIMUM of 10 minutes. After that, check this http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Burns-and-scalds/Pages/Treatment.aspx

Run under a cold tap, and check a chart to determine if you require further medical attention.

Luke warm tap not cold,

 

Aloe Vera.

 

Cold water sends the skin into shock and actually causes more pain, whereas tepid (or room temperature) water actually helps alot more. Or at least it did with my sun burns on the back of my neck, my ears, and my arms. Couldn't get the pain to stop, my mom said fill the bath with room temp or slightly lower temp water and sit in it for 15 minutes. Didn't fix it instantly but it did help.

Apply aloe. Applying cold water to burned area only works for verbal burns.

DO NOT USE COLD WATER

 

You will just cause more pain when you remove the burn from the water. Use Tepid water instead to relax the nerves and allow them to turn off. Cold water will create more stimulus to the damaged nerves, and as a result cause pain and burning when you remove it from the water.

 

Just my two cents.
