Is this a bad burn ?!

Although it cannot be truly assessed from a picture, it does appear to be a second degree burn!. If it hurts, it is not third degree- third degree burns burn ALL the tissue, including nerve cells, so you don't feel anything!.

Keep it covered with a dry, sterile dressing that is changed twice a day!.

Don't apply any OTC ointments, serums, cremes, etc!.

Don't pop any blisters!.

See your doctor!. He will further assess and provide antibiotics and pain medication as necessary!.

Take care,

This does look like a pretty bad burn!. I would suggest that you seek medical attention!. There are a lot of problems that could come from this type of burn, infection being the most dangerous one!. They can also provide you with a burn cream called silvadene that will really help with the pain!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

take precautions against infection!. if it was second-degree it would turn white; third-degree would turn ash-gray!. it doesn't look that bad, but!. !. !.if it still hurts, try some Aloe or some Over-the-counter burn cream!.
