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.
You are smart to be able to detect this.

If honey was readily available and applied within the first 5 minutes, all this would have been avoided

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.
This is not a question of "might be"; it is a third degree burn and the earlier you go to the hospital to get it treated, the better for you. Do no attempt to treat this at home please.

You are taking an undue risk... infection, preventable scars etc...go to the hospital and stop this!

Go and look for Altargo (a 5g ointment). Clean the surface of the wounds with Dettol water, apply Altargo. Repeat morning and night no. I will look for the picture and attach it .
