Burn Emergencies

Electricity, chemicals, steam, very hot water, and fire can all cause serious burns. The care you receive for burns will depend on the type and severity of your injury. Many burns can be treated in an outpatient setting. If a burn needs inpatient treatment, it should be performed in a burn center. Very severe burns need treatment in a burn center.

First- and Second-Degree Burns

A first-degree burn causes only redness, like a sunburn. It heals in a few days. A second-degree burn is deeper and causes a blister to form. This may take up to 2 weeks to heal.
