The characteristics of a second-degree burn center are the forming of blisters, swelling and fluids beginning to seep from the burned area. A burn injury is the destruction of the different layers of the skin and the structures within the skin, such as sweat glands, oil glands, and hair follicles. Heat generated from the fire or heat source and the amount of time the skin is exposed to the heat is what damages the skin. The depth of injury is described as a first, second, and third degree burn. Severe pain accompanies these symptoms, because the capillary blood vessels in the skin are damaged. This type of burn penetrates all the skin layers deep down into the muscle and fat tissues. The appearance of the skin has a waxy or leathery look. It may look charred or gray as well. The victim of a third-degree burn center feels no pain because the nerve endings have been damaged. Only pain from surrounding first and second-degree burns can be felt. It is best to elevate the legs of the burn victim and keep them warm by covering them with a clean sheet or blanket until medical assistance arrives.In all cases of burn it is wise to have the burned area examined by a physician to protect the burn victim from the high risk of infection.
A thermal burn can be caused by fire, coming in contact with hot
objects, flammable vapor that ignites causing an explosion, or contact to the
skin by steam or other forms of hot liquid. Burns may be treated with first
aid, in an out-of-hospital setting, or may require more specialised treatment
such as those available at specialised burn centers.Burns can be classified by
mechanism of injury, depth, extent and associated injuries and
comorbidities.Burns are described according to the depth of injury to the
dermis and are loosely classified into first, second, third, and fourth
degrees.Burns can be classified as major, moderate and minor. This is assessed
based on a number of factors, including total body surface area (TBSA) burnt,
the involvement of specific anatomical zones, age of the person and associated
injuries.Burns are caused by a wide variety of substances and external sources
such as exposure to chemicals, friction, electricity, radiation, and heat.
