With oil burns?

Hot oil burns are common accidental injuries in the kitchen. This type of burn is not only extremely painful but can also leave scars if not properly treated. Proper first-aid measures and follow-up care are essential to relieve symptoms, speed up healing, and prevent infection. The following will introduce you to the treatment methods and care tips for oil burns. Let's take a look.

Emergency treatment after being burned by oil :

Step 1: Immediately rinse the burned area under running cold water for at least 20 minutes. This helps lower the skin temperature, relieve pain, and reduce the depth of the burn.

Step 2: After rinsing, if the pain persists, you can use ice cubes to cool down. Be careful not to put the ice cubes directly into contact with the skin. Wrap the ice cubes with a towel first. Each ice compress should not exceed 20 minutes to avoid frostbite.

Step 3: Apply the hydrogel dressing to the burned area.

Care after oil burns :

Don't pop blisters: Blisters are part of the body's natural protective response, and popping them increases the risk of infection and delays healing.

2. Pay attention to the wound condition: Observe the healing of the burned area. Usually after 2-3 days, the wound surface should begin to dry. If it still does not scab off and heal after 10 days, there may be infection, and you should seek medical attention immediately.

Do hydrogel dressings play in burn care?

Hydrogel dressings can absorb wound exudate, create a moist environment, and help wound healing. They provide a protective layer for the burned area to prevent the invasion of external bacteria and reduce the risk of infection. They promote the regeneration of damaged skin cells and accelerate the wound healing process.

Helps relieve pain from burns.

Oil burns are a common kitchen accident. Proper emergency treatment and follow-up care are essential for wound healing. As an efficient modern wound care material, hydrogel dressings can provide a moist healing environment for the burn site, protect the wound from infection, relieve pain, and promote healing.
