How to Ease a Burn Fast

In this video I'm going to teach you how to ease a burn or sunburn fast and naturally.

Three ingredients to help get rid of your burn quickly:
1.) Peppermint Essential Oil (soothes and cools the pain and inflammation)
2.) Lavender Essential Oil (#1 way to ease burns)
3.) Organic Aloe Vera Gel (supports cellular communication for healing)

Other options:
You can add raw honey to these ingredients to create an ointment to rub on your burn area or create a spray by adding water to these three ingredients and pouring into a spray bottle.

Hot oil splashed all down the side of my face while cooking. My skin bubbled up and started to blister. I used aloe, however it still felt like my face was on fire. I used lavender oil, for five seconds it stung horribly---and then the pain completely went away! For two weeks I used aloe and lavender oil and kept the area covered. My face healed without leaving any scars or discoloration.

Did anyone else watch this straight after a burn? I’m just glad Dr Axe got straight to the point.

I burned my palm with a heat gun running at roughly 500 F. I followed your advice and bathed it in peppermint oil, and quickly found relief from the burning sensation. I slept that night with lavender oil applied to a bandage, and the next day I had no signs of the burn!

Just buy an aloe vera plant and use the gel straight from the plant. Raw honey mixed approximately 50:50 with the aloe gel is an excellent burn dressing. Good to know about the peppermint and lavender essential oils as well. Than you Dr. Axe. Good video.

Am I the only one who came here for a second degree sunburn

July 11 2024 writing this at 1 p.m. : I did not have aloe Vera gel, but I did have both Peppermint and Lavender essential oil. I applied them both to middle 3 fingers burned during cooking. Approximately 3 drops each. I burned my fingers at at 11 a.m., applied mixture of essential oil by 12 p.m. and by 1 p.m. pain had subsided and no blisters. Thank you Dr

I burnt my friend when I was spitting fire

OMG the best recommendation thus far. I mixed a couple of drops of both oils into some aloe Vera juice. The pain came back for a quick minute but quickly subsided. And the blister that was forming instantly chilled out. I did run cold water over it for about 20 minutes 1st. I tried some arnica gel but the pain and throbbing didn’t stop until I made this concoction. ♥️ Dr. axe

I BURNED THE SIDE OF MY WRIST ON A HOT POT. THERE WAS BURNING, BLISTERING, & I'M SURE POSSIBLE INFECTION. I PUT COCONUT OIL AND LAVENDER ESSENTIAL OIL ON THE BURN. THE BURNING WENT AWAY. AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE SCARRING IS LESS NOTICED. MY PLAN THIS YEAR, IS TO BECOME MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT ESSENTIAL OILS. THEY WORK😀

I love the info he's putting out there. His advice actually works. Thanks doc.

Peppermint and lavender oil are deff supreme at relieving redness. But instead of Aloe or coconut oil which dont seem to absorb very well Ive always found standard skin lotion to work beautifully! I use natures gate which is free of harmful chemicals but any skin lotion works better than Aloe. Guys this is coming from a super mega white guy who gets burned every summer since childhood. I ditched the Aloe a long time ago when I realized regular skin lotion kept the skin hydrated for longer periods of time which stops the itching. It also keeps your skin from peeling during the day when you have to be seen by other people. Use a sponge or loofa each time u shower to scrape off dead skin cells. Reapply lotion after every shower. Great vid by the way Dr Axe.

Just buy a burn heal at the nearest Pokemon center.

I just burned my lip eating very hot pizza cheese straight from the oven, very happy for this info especially because I have all the ingredients you mentioned.

[lamlegends]

Burnt my finger with fresh hot glue
I fell asleep with it in ice water
It always hurt when I took it out except when I woke up in the morning. The pain was completely gone
Just to make sure, I rubbed some aloe vera gel on it, and it healed super fast
