In case of immediate burns, immediately wash the affected part with cold water for few minutes.

Fractures

Don’t try to move the part fractured. If your hand part is fractured, tie a sling to rest the part of in it.

Bleeding

In case of bleeding, wash the cut surface with normal clean water. Clean the area with cotton wool and apply mild antiseptic if required.

Snake Bite

Heat Stroke

Poison
