What Is Burn Wound Care?
Burn wound care involves a series of medical treatments to support the skin’s recovery after damage caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. Prompt, specialised care helps prevent infection, manage pain, and promote proper skin regeneration.
Types of Burns We Treat
At Texas MultiSpecialty Clinic, we treat all degrees and types of burns:
- First-degree burns: Superficial injuries affecting the outer layer of skin, often caused by sunburn or brief contact with hot surfaces.
- Second-degree burns: It penetrate both the outer and deeper layers of the skin, typically resulting in blisters, swelling, and more intense pain.
- Third-degree burns: Severe burns that penetrate through the skin, possibly requiring surgical intervention.
- Chemical burns: These occur when the skin comes into contact with harsh substances such as acids, alkalis, or solvents, potentially causing deep tissue damage depending on the strength and duration of exposure.
- Electrical burns: Resulting from electric current passing through the body, these burns can cause both external skin damage and serious internal injuries, affecting muscles, nerves, and organs.
- Thermal burns: Caused by contact with hot objects, flames, steam, or scalding liquids, thermal burns are among the most common and vary in severity depending on the temperature and exposure time.
- Friction burns: These are a combination of abrasion and heat damage, typically occurring when skin rubs against a rough surface, such as in road rash or treadmill injuries.
