I think the first thing to do regardless of the degree or extent of the burns is to first take away the source of the burns followed by immediate cooling of the burns site.
Weather to manage the burns at home or to be hospitalised is largely dependent on the surface area and or the degree of the burns.
Alovera , baking soda, egg white etc will do a little or do nothing in case of second and third degree burns. Such individual needs to be hospitalised.

Being Hospitalized is a secondary stage,We are talking of FIRST AID

Nice!

Pap also helps. Make a paste of raw pap in ordinary water and apply immediately to the affected part.

My Grandmother told me that salt is also good in treating burns wound........

It's necessary to have a first aid box in the house if one can't afford a medical chest locker. In cases of burn you can apply burn gel on the surface of the skin it will help before going to the hospital if it's a high degree of burn.

otswag:
Warning: do not apply butter/margarine or any greasy oils/creams on burns as this traps heat hence worsens the burn.

I know of one oil preparation that heals burns fast esp first and second degree burns. I can't remember the name now but it helps prevent blisters and relives pain. Perfect for first degree burns tho. Even after initial treatment of 3rd degree, it also is good for after care.
