What to do about burns during pregnancy

When a woman has a burn after pregnancy, if the area is small and there is no blistering, it can be flushed in cold water first, but the temperature should not be below 5°C to avoid frostbite. Cold compresses are usually given within 24 hours to lower the temperature of the burned area and thus relieve the pain. Then apply scald ointment locally to keep the area clean and hygienic to avoid the occurrence of infection. If the burns are large or have blisters, you need to go to the hospital for debridement to prevent infection. Therefore, women should pay attention to rest after pregnancy, do not do too much activity, avoid the stimulation of unfavorable factors, such as burns, falls, etc. to avoid affecting the growth and development of the fetus, resulting in preterm abortion or preterm delivery.
