how long should a second degree burn be covered
Second-degree burns are more serious than first-degree burns and usually have a blister. A second-degree burn occurs when the epidermis and dermis layer of skin are burned. It is recommended that if the second-degree burn is over more than ten percent of your body, you should seek medical treatment immediately.econd-degree burns generally heal in two or three weeks. Sometimes the burn will take more than three weeks to heal because of the size of the burn. Also, as the burn heals it will itch. DO NOT itch or scratch the burn. Itching and scratching could cause an infection.
