RE: [Everything doTERRA] Bad burn on a one year old

I would add Melaluca to what has been suggested.  I had a young girl burn her entire finger on a pan on the stove.  She had put ice on it several times until her mom insisted that she let me put some ‘oils’ on it.  I put Lavender and Melaluca on it and then left them some to put on every hour if possible.  The next day – it was gone.  No more blister and no more burn.

I always keep the lavender and peppermint with a spray attachment, so you

get good coverage and don't touch the burned area. I would get the lavender

on him asap.

My husband was watching our baby this morning (he just turned one year
old last week) and didn't realize that he could burn himself on our
gas fireplace.  He just barely touched his little hand to it, but he
has horrible burns on the back of his left hand which have blistered
now.  There are six blisters on the backs of his fingers which are
pretty big and then one really big one about the size of a quarter on
the back of his wrist.  He is in a lot of pain and I don't know what
to do for him!!

All of the first aid burn websites that I have looked up have told me
to not put anything on a burn - no ointments, oils, etc.  But what
about essential oils?  Is this an exception?  I ran it under cold
water for about 15 minutes this morning and periodicially throughout
the day today.  The blisters are getting worse.  He was in so much
pain and crying earlier today that he was almost going into
convulsions.  I hate to see my baby like this.  He hardly ever even
cries!!  I gave him baby tylenol and wrapped his little hand and wrist
in gauze.  But I would really like to treat him with some oils if
anyone has any suggestions!

Please help if you can!!

Thank you!!
