Question

Accidentally burned my palm with boiling water. Immediately rinsed with cold water to cool down, no blisters appeared, but there is still pain and swelling. I have burn cream at home and the pain has been somewhat relieved after applying it. Is burn cream suitable for treating burns?

Answer

Burn cream can have a certain degree of relief for minor burns, but there are several points to note when using it: avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods before the burn is completely healed, and pregnant women should not use this medication. This is an external medication and should not be taken internally. If symptoms do not improve after use, or if there are signs of chills, fever, or abscesses, seek medical attention immediately. Additionally, this medication is not suitable for severe or large-area burns.
