Question
Will a child’s burned foot leave a scar if it’s bandaged for less than two weeks?
Answer
Based on the situation and observations you’ve described, considering that the child might have a superficial second-degree burn, it is best to take preventive measures promptly to prevent infection. If the scab falls off naturally within half a month after the wound has sealed, it is usually not likely to leave a noticeable scar. Additionally, starting from the third week, using the scar-reducing, swelling-relieving, pain-relieving, and softening ointment is a correct approach. This can help reduce scar formation and promote wound healing. I hope my advice is helpful, and wish the child a swift recovery!
