How to deal with blisters caused by scalds?

In our daily life or at work, we will come into contact with open flames or high-temperature substances. Of course, we will take various measures before contact to prevent burns, but "if you walk by the river, you will get your shoes wet." Our negligence or lack of attention may cause us to be burned. Blisters usually appear after a burn. Blisters are a protective measure against burns, but blisters will affect daily life. If you touch the blister area while walking or sleeping, you will feel severe pain, and if the blister ruptures, it is more likely to cause viral infection. So here is how to deal with blisters caused by burns?

First, observe whether the liquid inside the blister has turned reddish brown and whether the edge of the blister has turned red. If not, don't be nervous, it will get better soon. If the liquid turns reddish brown, you should go to the hospital for a check-up. Continue to observe whether your bubble changes when the temperature changes. If the bubble will deflate when it is cold, then it is not very serious. If it remains full, you should seek medical attention because the skin inside has not begun to recover at least during the period of time caused by the burn. If your bubble is reddish-brown and remains full, you should go to the hospital immediately to have the tissue fluid inside drained out. Do not puncture it yourself, as unsterilized tools may cause infection.

Suggestions: When bathing, do not use shower gel to wash the injured area, and try not to touch hot water, because the heat penetration will aggravate the injury. After cleaning the wound, apply antibiotic ointment or cream; then cover it with sterile gauze. Change the gauze two or three times a day. Deep burns can easily lead to serious infection and should be treated with intravenous antibiotics.

Small measures:

01

First, take cold heat dissipation measures. Rinse the wound continuously with cold water, or directly soak the burned area in cold water for 20 minutes to relieve pain, dissipate heat from the wound quickly and thoroughly, reduce the formation of blisters, and prevent scars from forming on the wound. This is the best and most feasible treatment method after a burn.

02

Blisters can be punctured at a low position with a sterilized needle. After puncture, be sure to disinfect and apply anti-inflammatory drugs to avoid wound infection, which may cause other diseases.

03

During the wound recovery period, keep the wound clean, hygienic and dry. It is best not to touch water or other objects, as this may cause the wound to come into contact with other bacteria and become infected, which may cause the wound to become inflamed or fester.

After a scald occurs, do not rub, massage, or squeeze the burned skin, and do not rush to wipe it with a towel. Do not use colored liquids such as mercurochrome and gentian violet on the wound, so as not to affect the doctor's judgment of the depth of the burn. Do not apply alkaline powder, sauce wine, toothpaste, etc. to avoid infection. Cover the wound with a wet towel or rinse with cold water for 15-20 minutes. The burn area can be applied with burn ointment such as Jingwanhong and Wanhua Oil, or sesame oil used at home.

Suggestions: Skin scalded by boiling water and blisters are considered second-degree burns. If the child still feels pain after the above treatment, do not break the blisters first. Instead, simply treat the child and send him to the hospital for treatment immediately.

The following methods are very effective for freshly burned skin. Even for severe burns, they can completely eliminate scars without leaving any traces. The effect is very ideal:

If the skin is damaged and festering, you need to clean the wound with saline first. For those with poor skin, it is best to take oral anti-inflammatory drugs, and then:

1. Lavender essential oil is an effective medicine for treating burns. It can kill bacteria and help skin heal. The effect is very magical. It can achieve more obvious therapeutic effects in a shorter period of time, and it will not leave scars after treatment, which will give you a surprise. It can be found in places where cosmetics are sold in shopping malls and some beauty salons also have it.

Note: Be sure to use pure lavender essential oil, and the sooner you apply it, the better the effect;

2. Use aloe vera. Mash the aloe vera pulp and apply it to the burned area. Change it regularly to prevent burn scars from leaving on the skin. The effect is very good.

3. Remove the thorns and skin of the cactus, mash it and apply it to the burned area. This can also achieve the effect of leaving no scars after the injury heals.

I have personally used lavender to treat my own burns and it worked very well. In your case, I personally recommend using pure lavender essential oil, which will heal quickly. If you don't mind the trouble, the other two methods will give you the same satisfactory results.

After accidentally getting scalded, it is better to flush the scalded area with tap water for 20 minutes to half an hour before applying medication, which is more beneficial to skin recovery. If you have blisters, try to avoid breaking them actively.

Store the remaining lavender essential oil in a dark and cool place (a wooden drawer is best). If you encounter mosquito bites, skin damage, or burns, you can use it for treatment, which can allow the skin to recover in the shortest possible time.
