So I went to a hospital this morning for proper treatment. The burns were cleaned thoroughly, dead skins removed, dermazin cream applied, and then gauze used to cover the burns. I also received tetanus injection and two other vaccines. Just like some people said, the application of GV was totally condemned by the doctor. It was cleaned off before treatment commenced. I'm to be going daily for 2-3 weeks for cleaning and dressing. Thanks everyone for your words of advice and encouragement.

You made the best decision, the wound will heal nicely within a few weeks. If you had gone ahead to treat it on your own, the wound would have taken long to heal, it may get infected along the way and by the time it eventually heals, it would scar terribly. Wishing you the swiftest recovery

Get well soon, please ensure to give it proper care so you don’t get infected and lead to something else.
May you not lose your legs!

On a lighter note, your leg be like horbit leg, are you a rock climber

It's nice that you didn't joke with your health. Quick recovery.

For those always condemning posting things on nairaland, I hope a lot of you realize that advise you can get from someone goes a long way in assisting you especially for people who needs other people's perspectives or don't even have anyone to talk to.

Re: Scald Injury Update (graphic Photos) by spinna:
Better..like i said before be eating plenty of protein and dont play with your antibiotics.. By God's grace the pains of the dressing changes will be greatly reduced for you.. I mean if you were eating one meat per meal change it to 3 or 4. Don't forget to be declaring with faith: it is well with you leg..i am healed by his stripes .etc

It was a bad one ..i was scared when i saw it..but its looking better already. Our prayers for speedy healing are being answered. May it miraculously heal in record time with zero scarring in Jesus name.

You are wise
may wisdom continue to follow you
Re: Scald Injury Update (graphic Photos) by spiceadole(f): 9:28pm On Oct 17, 2024
I wonder why Nigerians apply GV on burns injury.
Some even apply toothpaste,raw eggs,leaves..
All those are contaminants

First aid at the spot is to pour cold water in the area.

Then,go to hospital

Wish you quick recovery
