======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING STOPS, GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. MAINTAIN AIRWAY & BLOOD PRESSURE. KEEP WARM
& QUIET. TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY & SUPPORTIVELY. SKIN: WARM AFFECTED
AREA IN WATER AT A TEMPERATURE OF 107F. GENTLY WRAP AFFECTED PART
IN BLANKETS IF WATER IS NOT AVAILABLE. EXERCISE AFFECTED PART WHILE
