    Feeling rough after a deep burn is also a sign of needing medical attention, as it could be a sign of entering shock.

    A wet tea towel isn't great because it can get stuck - imagine that having to be removed later _pale_. Cling film is better because it doesn't get welded to the wound in the same way; if the garden hose isn't available, perhaps using a showerhead would be a better choice? :)

    Anything larger than a tiny stingy patch or covering a joint needs to be seen immediately. And no oils of any kind. Same goes with ANY electrical burns.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.
