- [Bumps and bruises](https://lightmysky.com/learn/life-skills/bumps-and-bruises-ct_L8iRzjpFt0M): Rest the sore spot and use something cold wrapped in a cloth, never ice straight on skin.
- [Nosebleeds](https://lightmysky.com/learn/life-skills/nosebleeds-ct_jpz3gOtC0rM): Sit, lean a little forward, and pinch the soft part of your nose. Do not lean back.
- [Burns from hot things](https://lightmysky.com/learn/life-skills/burns-from-hot-things-ct_e1P8bgtTI6w): Tell a grown-up and cool it with running water for a long time. Never butter, never ice.
