How to treat blisters from mild burns?

Patient's question:

The baby accidentally burned itself while drinking water, and many blisters formed on its hand. However, I don't know how to handle these blisters, but it's not very serious. Now, I'm asking for the treatment method for minor burns with blisters?

Doctor's answer:

Blisters after finger burn are caused by increased subcutaneous exudation after the burn. Generally, it is not advisable to pick them. In this case, you can apply moist burn ointment to the burned area to keep it moist. At the same time, you can use topical antibiotic ointment to prevent local infection. Over time, the exudate will be gradually absorbed. For this condition, if accompanied by itching or other symptoms, it can be used.
