what to put on gas burns

I was in A plane crash and the fuel tank burst, I was soaked in gas from my waist down.
There was no flame but my skin feels like A severe sun burn what is the best thing I can put on it for relief?

Congratulations for walking away from an aviation accident; as you most likely know, that opportunity doesn’t avail itself very often :o). You’ve posted your question in a Hepatitis discussion group; it’s unlikely you’ll get an informed response here.

I hope you recover fully, and take good care,

Hello,
Treatment of burns depends upon the depth of injury from a burn. First-degree burns are the most shallow (superficial). They affect only the top layer of skin (epidermis). Second-degree burns extend into the middle layer of skin (dermis). Third-degree burns involve all three layers of skin.

From your description, it looks like a first or second degree burn. Most superficial burns heal within about two weeks and don't usually leave a scar. For these kind of burns; you can apply antibiotic cream such as silver sulfadiazine (Silvadene).It will prevent infection and help in fast healing.If the symptoms persist then pls consult a dermatologist.

Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.

Went to the doctor yesterday, he prescribed silvadene for the burns and also A antibiotic. I hope it heals quickly thanks for the information.
