Hot water on the skin can cause a first- or second-degree burn. A first-degree burn causes only redness. A second-degree burn is deeper. It causes a blister to form. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and medication plan.

In case the burn has healed within 2 weeks it will not leave any marks. Still some burn wounds may need some sort of modulation so that it heals scarless. Its is imperative that you consult a plastic surgeon/burn surgeons for evaluation. After evaluation only you should apply some medication.

Good afternoon. Regarding your query on 5 year old keloids, depending on the size and locations various allopathic options exist. Silicone sheet treatment is indeed one of the options. Contractubex gel at this stage (5 year gap) is unlikely to produce much effect if any. Regarding homeopathic options, I hope a doctor of the relevant field can provide you with an answer.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
First and foremost is that her blood glucose has to be well controlled with FBG closer to 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg and HbA1c% <7%.
Apply Silversulphadiazine cream on the wound. Thanks.
