Burns...
Got a burn on the arm from the grill, on top of that I rubbed some of the skin off. What's the best to use for healing and to minimize scaring?

TIA

Aloe! Aloe! Aloe! I burned myself pretty bad on the leg about 4 years ago and my skin melted right off. I kept Aloe Vera gel on it for a few weeks and it heeled right up. You can't even see a scar today!!

Poor baby! If you don't go to a doc (which you should do so just to make sure it doesn't get infected) use Neosporin. It's helped with my surgical scars.

I don't think you're supposed to use oil-based meds on burns.

Started off with "neosporin" to fend off infection. Wasn't sure how well it would do on the healing?

...figure 12 oz per every 18-20 pounds, applied once a week, preferably Saturday's, taken internally. Pretty soon, you won't give a #### about the scarring the other 6 days of the week either.
