Why should we pay attention to low temperature burns? During low-temperature burns, the surface of the skin becomes red and feels like burning pain. This minor injury can be cured in a few days. Although some burns are painless, edema forms, making it difficult to judge the severity of the burn from the surface. However, the possibility of deeper burns should be considered. Burns require timely diagnosis and treatment. After treatment, the burned skin will generally fall off and new skin will grow after the swelling subsides. If the treatment is not timely, bacterial infection and suppuration of the injured area will cause certain difficulties in treatment. In severe cases, the tissue in the injured area slowly becomes necrotic, and eventually thick black scabs form. It takes several months to heal after the scabs are peeled off, and scars will remain. Never judge the severity of a burn based on the intensity of the pain, as this may delay treatment. Liu Genli, Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Baoding Fifth Hospital Low-temperature burns are not as sudden and unexpected as high-temperature burns. The problem is that most people don’t pay enough attention to low-temperature burns, which causes low-temperature burns to occur from time to time. At present, all kinds of electrical appliances can be seen everywhere around us. As long as we can use them correctly and understand the knowledge of low-temperature burns, this kind of injury can be completely avoided.
