Question: How should I treat a 2nd degree burn!?
I burned my arm yesterday & it blistered up!. A dime sized part of it is open & it looks infected already!. I have been keeping hydrogen peroxide & neosporin on it with a bandaid on it!. It has started looking red around it & kind of greenish in the open part!. Should I have a Dr!. look at it!? Is there anything they can do!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Hydrogen peroxide and ice will make a second degree burn (it actually sounds like a third degree) get worse!.
Get it checked out either tonight or first thing in the morning!. Don't even make an appointment, just go and they'll see you either at the ER or at a dermatologist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Give it another day, keeping it clean and dry!. If the infection seems to be increasing, or it gets swollen, give your doc a call!. Antibiotics will clear it right up!. Burns are incredibly prone to infection!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
DO NOT PUT ICE directly on burn!.
Do not put bandaid or hydrogen peroxide on it!.
You need to go to the ER tonight!!!
It's very dangerous if it's infected!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
