How To Treat A Burn

Description: Are you a person who loves cooking or someone whose needs heat or fire to complete your job? If so, have you experienced a part of your skin be burnt? It hurts, doesn't it? And not just that, it also spoils the task you have to complete, right? Burn is one classification of an injury that is caused by the contact of the skin with heat, electricity, or even from chemicals. The commonly affected area is the outer portion of the skin but there are cases where the damage goes deep down the inner tissues. It is very important to take extra caution in managing this injury because it may lead to severe pain, respiratory discomfort, the necessity to amputate the affected area, or even death. It is important to determine first the severity of the burn, which could be a first, second, or third degree burn, before executing any kind of treatment because the treatment to be given to the patient depends on it. Minor burns can be treated with first aid or the patient may seek help from a hospital's emergency room but for out-of-the-hospital setting, the burnt portion of the skin must be immersed with cold water. Do not apply ice on the damaged skin because it may only cause more harm and do not cover it with bandage because it will only stop the supply of air which means a longer period to heal it. If the patient still feels numbness or slight pain, he may take a pain reliever. This kind of burn will heals without much medical attention but it is also important to look out for possible infections. However, for severe burns, it may need treatments such as the removal of the dead tissues or amputation, skin grafting, or injecting intravenous chemicals at high volumes. During the time of burnt, it is important to call for immediate emergency services. To lessen the temperature of the body, the patient may apply cold compress over the burned area and if possible the burned area must be above the heart. It is important to have someone help the patient until medical help arrives.
