First aid

Do you guys have any site that will help with first aid?

For example, I got an oil burn this weekend. It isn't too bad, but it is starting to dry and hurt. I bought two types of pads, two types of gauze and tape to figure out how to wrap it so I can keep it moist (ech) and also not rubbing on anything.

It would be nice to be able to look this stuff up, but when I did, I didn't find anything helpful.

Currently, I have two non-stick pads wrapped with stick to itself gauze. The pads keep moving, so I think I should have taped them down. I think the stick to itself gauze is a little too rough because I have one spot right below where my wrist bends and it hits every once in a while.

Tomorrow, I am going to try the other pads (uber fluffy) taped loosely down with regular gauze. Hopefully it is strong enough to hold up to my day.
