Hmmm...ok but what if the situation worsens,snap the injury and let your husband go the general hospital and make enquiry, probably book an appointment before bringing the child.Do not allow your fear deform the boy's hand, please.

This might work for an adult but a child will always scratch that injured part and would never agree to stay at a place to nurse the wound,that's why a pediatrician would be a good option.

Use givi (purple blue)so as not to discolor his skin. It also helps the surface to dry faster

Alright ma...

Dermazin heals burns fast.When you are buying,please check if there is age restrictions

Blue seal Vaseline is your answer ma'am, it will heal nicely with little or no scar. Doctors do recommend it

Stop using home remedies and get this child to an hospital. Don’t be an irresponsible parent. The smell could be an indication of infection which could escalate and cause amputation/sepsis e.t.c

Yes, I later bought one yesterday... and just one day of applying, great improvement was noticed... Yes I checked, I think it's only neonates and premature infants that can't use it.... Thanks so much...

Try dermacin......it helped me when i had burns

But pls whatever you do, do not use GV (that purple liquid)

Ooh, really... Thanks for this... let me go and read on the GV..

Take that child to a children hospital before that hand gets infected.

Sorry about that! Look for a nurse to dress it up, if its difficult finding a nurse. This is a DIY dressing process.
Go to a pharmacy; buy 1 chloraphenicol injection powder, blueseal Vaseline, normal saline drip water, sterile gauze bandage cotton wool
Mix the injection powder into the Vaseline. Clean the burnt area with cotton wool dip in saline water. Apply the mixed Vaseline ointment very generously (p.s emphasis on generously) to the affected areas and dress it loosely with sterilised gauze bandage. Repeat dressing every two days.
Please avoid GV ink. Dermazin is effective when the wound is healed, its applied to prevent scarring and create a uniform skin tone. It doesn't heal fresh wound.

Continue home remedy until that hand gangrenes or infected with tetanus. Considering the age of the child, a little infection on that hand can easily spread to the blood and the rest of the body.

Throw everything you're using now away, go and buy original honey, apply twice or three times a day. Use original honey, and come back for testimony.

Thanks for this detailed analysis... Though we have been cleaning it regularly and applying the dermacin, there is a noticeable improvement...... Thanks so much....

Hey! That's rude.Why refer to the husband as foolish.Please you can do better.If she knew what to do,she wouldn't come on nairaland

For the wound to be smelling that means it's infected. Please discard all treatment with antibiotics given above.
Just go the emergency of any hospital near by they will attend to you. If you don't want to lose your baby's hand or baby at worst by trial and error. You should move now. It's a child and they are delicate..
