Question
How should I treat a baby’s burn injuries from hot water?
Answer
After a burn from hot water, immediately immerse the affected area in cold water to cool down, and choose an appropriate treatment method based on the severity of the burn. For superficial second-degree burns, you can clean the wound with physiological saline, apply sulfadiazine silver ointment or Medicated Burn Cream, and keep the wound moist. If swelling or purulent discharge occurs, seek medical treatment promptly.
