Answer: Cover the burns with a​ clean, white, dry sheet.

The first degree burns affect the outer surface of the skin, these may cause redness, swelling and pain. The second degree burns may affect both outer and underlying surface of the skin. These burns may cause pain, swelling, redness and blisters. The third degree burns are the severe and lethal burns these affect the nerves and the bones.

baherus [9]
True, some stretching exercises can be harmful, even if performed correctly. 

There are many stretching exercises that can cause you problems. The most sensitive spots on your body are your neck, your back, and your knees. The most common stretching technique is to bend over and touch your toes (even doctors will tell you to do this at times). Doing that will cause tension in your lower back which may be bad going forward.
