We were at the dacha with the kids, set up a table in the garden and got ready for tea. The kids were carrying plates, cups, and cookies. But then the eldest, he is 6, wanted to bring a kettle with boiling water, but did not notice a pebble on the path, tripped, and fell. It is good that the kettle flew far away, and the water from it only got on his hand. There was a severe burn with blisters. We did not have anything suitable for this situation with us. We ran to the neighbors. It is good that Aunt Masha had an aerosol Olazol. She used it herself to treat skin ulcers. It relieved the pain quite quickly. Then we went to the doctor, and he said that it should be used further for 3 days. Now everything is fine, there are not even any scars left.
