What is the proper treatment for deep second degree burns?

Answer by  Jalex (104)

Go to the doctor. They will prescribe the proper treatment. You want to prevent as much scarring and infection as possible.

To be quite honest, the only treatment you need for basically any kind of burn is Aloe Vera juice. It works best when it is squeezed directly from the Aloe Vera Stem and also if it is applied immediately. I have even cured (with no scarring) chemical burns using this method.

Treatment can range from antibiotic ointments, dressing changes, to systemic antibiotics. Treatment is the decision of a physician who will take into account extent, location, and cause of the burn.

The proper treatment for deep second degree burns should not be done at your home, and it is sincerely advised to go to some nearby Hospital and tell them how you got those burns and get the proper treatment from them.

All burns have to be properly cleaned and handled with sterile equiptment or supplies. Hands that are handling the area should be wearing rubber gloves or very clean. A burn can easily get infected. After cleaning the area should be dressed with a breathable material.
