Patient's question:
After the burn, I immediately rinsed it with tap water for about 8 minutes, applied Jingwanhong ointment, and got an anti-inflammatory shot at the clinic that day. The next evening, I accidentally got it wet. How should I handle the burn?Doctor's answer:
Bubble Treatment: Blisters caused by burns need to be drained, otherwise they are prone to pus and infection, which can also affect the absorption of medication by the wound and hinder wound healing. Small blisters can be drained using a sterile needle at a low angle, allowing the fluid to drain out; large blisters can be opened with a sterile scissors, allowing the fluid to drain out. After draining the blisters, do not cut off the skin over the blister, and especially do not ( means "tear off") it with your hands. The skin over the blister can protect the wound and prevent infection and inflammation.
