Abstract
This article discusses Indian burn prevention and first aid knowledge, attitudes, and practises. Rural and quasi-urban societies face preventative and first-aid issues. Poverty, over population, mysticism, and modernization coexist. This article on preventive measures should sensitise, educate, and foster communication between health care providers and the community. This could help provide clear and practical clinical guidelines for resource limited societies.
