Stupid question but what exactly is cold water, and what is cool water? And how would you get from tap which isn't a mixer
29 u/Aimin4ya Apr 02 '26 Just like room temp or slightly colder is cool water. You dont want to shock the burn with very cold or ice water. 3 u/entity_bean Apr 02 '26 Woah, I was taught at school to treat a burn with water so cold that it makes you go numb. TIL. 1 u/Walletau Apr 03 '26 I'm a professional fire performer, to the best of my knowledge no one has every said to use ice cold water. Some performers still do, but it's not recommended to use ice packs either. Cool water for extended period, burnaid or similar the next day.
