Please don't put toothpaste on a burn. The mint might feel deceptively cool on one's skin, but it is NOT a recommended treatment by doctors. It's not sterile for starters, and could lead to infection. It's not a huge risk, but there's so little benefit that you're far better off running the affected area under a gentle stream of cool water, then treating it with an antibiotic ointment.

Huh. It's interesting you say that.
I mean I'm talking about light burns, obviously not anything open - and this is a remedy that the ER doctors and orthopedic surgeons in my family have used for years, not something I just heard from somewhere.

But if somebody doesn't feel safe using it, then better not.
