I was trying to prepare dinner about 2 hours ago, when boiling water poured on my leg. I was rushed to a nearby hospital, where I was administered first aid, and then the doctor prescribed some drugs. I have a feeling that this might be a third degree scald. Your suggestions are welcome on how to treat this.
Sorry about that.

But don't panic. It will heal in due time. Thank God it's not an infection

Wow sorry 😲

Since you have already been treated at the hospital. Just take your drugs and avoid water pouring on it. Keep it clean from anything that can infect it.

I wish you quick healing

This home remedy is very simple and wouldn't cost you anything.

Pluck African never die leaf in any nearby bush squeeze the leaves and apply it's juice directly on the affected areas.

By the way sorry for the burn.

Thank your God it wasn't an acid burn,if not your name would have been sorry.
Just be going for regular dressings with appropriate dressing materials and necessary drugs and it will heal.May just take some time.
The only thing is that the burn scar may persist for a long while.
But you would be fine.
Other people have survived worse burns and still live to tell their tales.

Please, whatever you do you need antibiotics and pain killers....It's Exposed to germs.
Re: I Just Had A Severe Scald From Boiling Water (graphic Images) by Caesar2505: 9:09pm On Oct 16, 2024
So sorry about that.
I bet you are going through pains now.
Please get povidone iodine lotion and be applying to eat alongside the medication you were asked to be taken by the doctor.
The povidone lotion will help in the healing process, it will make your skin look normal other than being pigmented and untwisted while healing.
It also keeps germs away
It's either you get povidone or povidone plus ( the plus is a combination of iodine and metronidazole specifically meant for sores.
Take care

Buy original Blue seal Vaseline (original o) the one with recommended by dermatologist
It's around 5k and above for the medium size

You didn't go a hospital, you went to a chemist shop who sold drugs to you. Trained medics would have peeled off the burnt skin, treated and dressed the wound. That's not a 3rd degree burn, you won't be needing skin grafts. However, thr burnt skin will need to be peeled off so you can apply antibiotics and other treatments to the wound and dress it. Go to a hospital and get proper treatment instead of a chemist shop.

Plus go to emergency ward of the teaching hospital in your area.

You can drop your Account if finance is a problem for you for help and support.

Please don’t seek any opinion here medically.
Just to accidents and emergency of any state or federal hospital.

Treated fish skin over the severe area on your ankle then use honey mixed with honeycomb to lay over it.
You'll also need antibiotics to fight infection

If you can’t make it to the hospital tonight, put some flour whether multipurpose flour or cassava flour. Apply it generously and you will see the result.

The wounds is infected.
You Guys have contaminated it .
You Guys are always fond of applying too many unsterile concoctions to wounds.
That wound wouldn't have been this bad.
Scald from hot water heals very fast....
Why apply Gentian Violet tincture😭😭😭
