Hello,
Probably, it seems a superficial burn and need not to be worry much. You can consult a local doctor who will probably prescribe you antibiotics and local cream containing antibiotic. If it's not possible to consult a doctor, you can use silverex cream which works in most of superficial burns. Only to remember is just a mild burning occurs after it's application.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
