Burning off a layer of skin with boiling water may be a more serious condition that needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. If the skin is scalded and there is epidermal peeling, this is a second-degree burn. If the base of the wound is reddish, with symptoms such as oozing and obvious pain, it belongs to superficial second-degree burns. In this case, if there is no other infection, usually about half a month can recover. It is recommended that it should be treated actively so as not to affect the recovery of the skin. If the base of the wound appears red and white, and the pain is not obvious, this case belongs to the deep second-degree burns, it usually takes about a month to fully recover, and there may still be obvious scarring after healing. It is recommended to use burn cream to apply to the affected area under the guidance of a doctor after the burn. If symptoms such as small blisters appear, be careful not to pick through them to avoid aggravating the infection. After the injury, it is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner, and follow the doctor’s instructions to be formal treatment.
