Asked for male, 35 years old from Bangalore

Hi I got a skin burn on account of hot sugar syrup falling on my thumb. It became a blister. I had used burnol and silverex nitrate gel. I have also used neosporin powder. The blister popped on it's own but there's no puss. A red skin is there, there's no pain. Can I apply burnol or silverex over the red skin? Please advise. Thanks.

After burns there may be itching in the healed area and more so if it is raised. Best is to a/avoid soap b/ apply oil any type before shower c/ mix vaseline and boroline cream equally and apply to the itching areas. D/ use mittens for the hands in the night. E/ use cetrizine only when very essential f/ try prugo lotion locally it helps.

First-degree burns should heal on their own within a week without causing scars. Second-degree burns should heal in about two weeks. They sometimes leave a scar, but it may fade with time. Third-degree burns can take months or years to heal. Please provide me more information about the issue. So, after that I can suggest you the best possible treatment for he same.

Who so ever has prescribed the medicine its best to check with him. Burn wound treatment can be started only after seeing the wound. We need more details like when did it get burnt and by what. What was the depth of burn, what was done then for treatment etc.

Early treatment with dressing, oral antibiotics is ok.in case in 2-3 weeks if not healing, need surgical correction for deep wound.

It may be deep. Or we have to understand what do you mean by healed. If it is wet then it is not healed but if it is dry and discoloured then it is healed but the colour will take time.
If it is dry you can stop all medication and start only vaseline or petroleum jelly for 2 weeks. If it is wet then it would be best to see a surgeon or plastic surgeon.
