Question
While playing with my younger brother at home, I accidentally got scalded by boiling water, and now there is a large area of blisters. Although I have already seen a doctor and used medication, there has been no significant improvement. I am asking if there is any medication that can accelerate healing.
Answer
Scald burns are common in everyday life and can be categorized into three degrees. First-degree burns only have redness and pain, which can be treated by keeping the area clean and avoiding infection, using burn ointment. Second-degree burns are more severe, requiring the draining of the blister fluid and the application of ointment, along with possible antibiotic treatment.
