Question
how would you cool a person whose face was burned by hot steam?
use wet towels or sheets to cool the affected area.
apply ice or cold ice packs to the face.
make sure that the person is holding his or her breath then immerse the face in cool water.
all of the above
When a person's face is burned by hot steam, using wet towels or sheets to cool the affected area is a proper first - aid measure. Applying ice or cold ice packs directly to the face can cause further damage (frostbite) to the already injured skin. Immersing the face in water while holding breath is not a practical or safe general - purpose method for cooling a burned face, especially as it may lead to other risks like accidental inhalation if the person cannot hold breath properly.
