Burn Blisters 🔥 🦶

What to do if you have a burn blister?

This is actually a topic of debate by emergency physicians. If the burn is superficial, it can be treated without going to the hospital but, if it’s deep, you need to go to the hospital

Hands and feet are special areas because scarring can lead to functional impairment. Blisters this size should be evaluated by a doctor

Based on the current available evidence, blisters should, wherever possible, be left intact to reduce the risk of infection
