Burn infection?!


Question:

Burn infection?

So, on sunday i burned my arm w/ a curling iron (dont ask how) and it was a pretty good one. second degree. anyway, the last few days i've been bandaging it and putting ointment on it. it has started getting a light reddish tint around it. like its infected. everything i read on burns says i should see a doctor. but i dont want to cause i dont have the money to pay for it right now and dont want to go to a doctor unless i REALLY need to. Is there anything i can do to get rid of the infection, some kind of home remedy?


Answers:

for the burn, let it get some air so it can heal
