If you are ever concerned about a burn you have sustained, you should always feel free to see a doctor for expert medical attention! Our board-certified physicians at Reddy Urgent Care would be happy to evaluate your burn and provide any necessary treatment. In general, you should seek urgent medical attention for any burn that exhibits the following symptoms: • Any burn that covers the buttocks, face, feet, groin, hands, major joint, or any large area of the body • Burns that affect all layers of the skin or deeper tissues • Burns that give your skin a leathery appearance • Charred skin or patches of black, brown, or white skin • Increased pain, redness, and swelling • Large burn or blister that has not healed in two weeks • Oozing from the wound An urgent care clinic such as Reddy Urgent Care can take exceptional medical care of any 1st or 2nd-degree burn. However, you should go to the emergency room for any burn more severe than that to receive adequate medical attention. If you are unsure which facility you should visit for your burn, consider whether or not it is life-threatening, in which case you should go to your nearest emergency room immediately. If you are still unsure, please call us, and our medical professionals and assistants can direct you to where you need to go.
