Question
Hello, I would like to ask how to treat the symptoms of itching on the head, scabs, and scratching, as well as slight pus-like discharge at the edges after a child’s facial burn?
Answer
Hello, based on your description, the child’s condition may be caused by regional infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital for debridement treatment as soon as possible. Do not scratch the scabs after the burn, as pus-like discharge may be a sign of secondary inflammatory infection. You can use povidone-iodine solution to clean the wound and apply Baiduyang soft cream for anti-inflammatory treatment.
