What medicine is good for burns? What are the precautions for burns?

Accidents are inevitable in life, and burns are very common. If not handled properly, they are likely to aggravate the pain and leave ugly scars. So what is the best medicine to treat burns?

What medicine is good for burns?

1. The burned area must be kept away from water and infection. It is best not to wear socks or cover it with anything. It is best to keep the surface dry. Suggestions: Go buy Jing Wan Hong (burn medicine) and rub it on the burned area on the sole of your foot. It’s quite effective and it doesn’t hurt when you apply it. For large blisters, you can use a sterilized needle to puncture the edge of the blister to drain the water, apply burn ointment and bandage it with appropriate tightness. It can be eliminated in about 10 days

2. Jingwanhong has good effect and does not leave scars

3. Try using aloe vera juice, it can reduce swelling, relieve pain and remove scars. If the burn is serious, you need to go to the hospital.

4. After the burn, rinse with cold water immediately to lower the temperature of the epidermis. If it is not serious, you can go to the pharmacy to buy MEBO moist burn ointment. After applying it, the wound should be exposed.

5. I remember the last time I was burned by a motorcycle smoke pipe, my friend suggested that I peel fresh aloe vera and then apply the aloe vera juice directly to the affected area. Apply it several times a day and it will heal quickly.

6. I have seen more serious burns (such as larger area burns and electrical burns - my niece's base of the thumb was burnt and charred), and I used "MEBO" moist burn ointment in all of them, and the effect was good. As for whether scars will be left, it mainly depends on the severity of the burns. Generally, minor blisters will not leave obvious scars. There may be pigmentation, but it will gradually fade over time.

7. No need for any medicine, potato slices are the most effective. First cut the potatoes into thin slices, apply them to the burned area one by one, and replace them with new slices when the potato slices are hot. The last time my grandfather got burned, I used this method and it healed quickly. It only lasted for one day and there was no sign left.

8. Aloe vera juice is very good. It has a good calming effect on burns and can also accelerate wound healing. The method of use is to carefully clean the wound first, then gently apply it evenly, apply 4 to 6 times a day, and apply a thicker layer before going to bed at night.

Precautions for burns

1. Don’t apply ice

After a burn or scald, the damaged skin has lost the protection of the epidermis and should not be directly iced to avoid frostbite.

2. Do not apply salt water, toothpaste, sesame oil, soy sauce, etc.

Applying these media after a scald will cause pain to the patient, easily lead to secondary infection of the burn wound, and hinder medical staff's judgment and treatment of the injury.

3. Do not apply ointment immediately

Applying ointment will cause the heat energy to wrap around the skin and continue to damage it. The correct way to deal with it is to flush it with water to cool it down immediately.

4. Avoid excessive friction and excessive activity

Due to the imperfect structure and function of the scar epidermis, the epidermis is more susceptible to damage, and excessive exercise or activity may aggravate the damage.

5. Avoid smoking, drinking and spicy food

It will affect the healing of the wound. The slower the wound heals, the greater the chance of leaving scars in the future.
