OUCH! Deep burn! Went into my skin...?!


Question: OUCH! Deep burn! Went into my skin!.!.!.!?
I went camping with a bunch of families in New York!. There were 2 fires!. One had all the adults and most of the little kids!. The other fire had all friends my age!. I just had a Pixie Stix and decided to burn the tube (I know stupid idea!. Please no answers with my stupidity attached)!. It was on fire and i was holding it out!. When a wind came a drop of burning plastic went onto my knee!. My knee now has a "crater" in it!. The hole is about a cm by a cm!. it is about 5 mm deep!. Did the plastic burn a hole, go in my skin, and burn out!? Or is the plastic still in there!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
most likely it burnt a hole
i think its only 1st degree so just clean the area once in a while to keep it from infectingWww@Answer-Health@Com

sounds like first degree could be second degree depending on how it looks since you weren't all that specific in your question!. The best thing to do is to protect it with a steril bandage and keep the area moistWww@Answer-Health@Com

you should see a doctor, could get infected, it probably needs a good benadine scrub and some tweezers in case there is some in there!. Get to a Doc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

should probably see a doctor cause it could get infected and worse!. for now, though, you should make sure its clean, and wrap it in an ace bandage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Id get a doctor to check it out and make sure!Www@Answer-Health@Com
