Blisters after a burn? It could be a second-degree burn — don’t ignore it!
Second-degree burns affect both layers of the skin, causing redness, swelling, pain, and blisters.
Here’s what you should do:
- Don’t apply salt, toothpaste, oil, or turmeric — they can cause infection and more pain.
- Don’t use ice or very cold water — it can damage the skin further.
- Instead, cool the burn gently under clean running water for 10–15 minutes.
- Cover it with a clean cloth and seek medical care right away.
Quick care can prevent infection and scarring.
Traditional remedies may comfort, but modern first aid heals safely.
Protect your skin — treat burns the right way!
