First you have to find a virgin,then a ripe toad....

Next you have too wring the toad out until all its secretions have been gathered up in a vessel.

Daub those toad secretions on your burn and chant loudly

"All hail the toad All hail the toad" guarenteed it ll be gone by sunrise next day.

Oh what about the virgin you ask well i just added that bit for a laugh....

Sadly, you have a very small window of time to treat the burn before it "takes". Lavender essential oil, liberally applied to a burn directly after it happens, will stop the pain and stop the burn from blistering. Incredible stuff, but you have to apply it immediately - within a minute.

 

If the burn has already progressed, theres not much you can of except keep it clean and moist to promote healing. Burns are liable to infection, since the top layer of skin is essentially dead and attracts necrotic bacteria. So cover with a gauze, dampened with water and white malt vinegar, maybe 1 part vinegar to 20 parts water, and cover that with cling film. Change every day. Best of luck.

What's the best treatment for a bad rope burn to get it to heal quick.

 

 

Make sure it's kept clean a burn is worse than a cut for getting infected because of the dead tissue.

I would rinse with saline solution between dressings.

Or better still go to the Doctors/Chemists for info.
