Is it okay to put lemon juice on a burn?

Applying lemon juice to a burn can cause chemical burns, further irritating the affected area and delaying the healing process.

The best treatment for minor burns is to follow the "RICE" method:

1. Rinse the burn with cool water for at least 20 minutes.

2. Immerse the burn in cold water or apply cold compresses for 10-15 minutes.

3. Cover the burn with a clean, non-stick bandage to prevent infection.

4. Elevate the burned area to reduce swelling and pain.

If the burn is severe, seek immediate medical attention.
