if it is a serious burn contact a physician immediately. otherwise take a sip of a strong liquor and hold it in your mouth for a few minutes and spit. repeat as necessary. it helps numb the pain and reduces the probability of infection.

Many people biurn their mouths while drinking very hot coffee or tea. Indians drink a drop of ghee everyday mixed with their tea/coffee to avoid future burns. I don't know the reason and it is not yet a medically established procedure.
