What should I do immediately after suffering a burn injury in Michigan?

After suffering a burn injury in Michigan, it's crucial to prioritize your safety and seek medical attention immediately. If the burn is severe, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. While waiting for medical help, gently cool the burn with cool (not cold) water for 10-15 minutes to help reduce pain and swelling. Remove any clothing or jewelry near the burn unless it's stuck to the skin. Avoid using ice, butter, or ointments on the burn. Cover the burn with a sterile bandage or clean cloth to protect it from infection. If the burn is minor, you can also clean it gently with mild soap and water.
