How do you know when a b**n needs treatment?
« on: April 25, 2012, 05:45:38 PM »
I've read the first aid thread and I've looked online to see if I can find any pictures that look similiar and I still don't know.

i've heard in the past, but i could well be wrong, that if it is on your hands, face or other sensitive areas then it should be checked..
 
if it's 3rd degree burns or more than 3 inches ...

hope your OK hun, if your not sure best to get it checked anyway ! xxx

I think it's second degree but it's the size of the palm of my hand, but isn't on my hand (or a sensitive area)
