Full-fat milk is high in fat and protein that may help promote healing of the skin. Cold milk may also contribute to soothing the burn. For quick relief from pain and inflammation, try submerging the burn in milk for fifteen minutes or soak a washcloth in milk and apply it directly to the burn. The same technique can be used with full-fat unsweetened yogurt. Blending whole milk or yogurt with berries and applying it to the skin is an excellent way to provide skin with antioxidants needed for healing.

Oats

Oats may be able to soothe the skin by reducing inflammation. It can also help take the itch out of the burn to prevent scratching while it is healing. If the wound is large, add one cup of oats to warm bath water and sit for twenty minutes. For smaller burns, add a few oats to a bowl of water and soak. Be sure to air dry skin and avoid wiping the oats clean until they are dried.
