Condition analysis: It is necessary to determine whether there are scars according to the depth of the burn

Opinions and suggestions: Clinical burns are treated according to the third-degree and fourth-degree method, based on the depth of the burn wound. Graduation! Generally, scars will remain on wounds above 2 degrees deep. The main clinical manifestations of deep 2 degree burns are: smaller or flatter blisters, slightly dull feeling, and slightly lower skin temperature. After epidermal removal, the wound surface appears light red or red and white, or a network of embolized blood vessels can be seen; there is little exudation on the surface, but the swelling at the bottom is obvious!

After being burned by boiling water, it is usually a 2nd degree burn, but it is a shallower 2nd degree. If treated correctly, there will be no scars! It is more common clinically.

Local redness and swelling are obvious, and blisters of different sizes are formed, containing yellow plasma-like liquid or protein coagulated peptone. After the blister ruptures, a flushed wound surface with soft texture, high temperature, severe pain, and numerous dilated and congested capillary networks can be seen.
