Question
Hi, I burned my hand with boiling water, and even after rinsing with cold water, I still feel pain and swelling. Is it appropriate to apply burn cream?
Answer
Burn cream is an external medication suitable for mild burns. If there is no significant improvement after use, or if symptoms such as fever, chills, and suppuration occur, medical attention should be sought immediately. Pregnant women should discontinue use, and it is prohibited to take internally. Patients with severe or large-area burns should not use this medication; maintaining good health is the key.
