Is there a doctor in the house?

Got a burn situation here with blistering, (not me, my girl) and I know there's not much that can be done for it, but need to know if we should drain the blisters or not.... a regular ol' work blister I would, but I'm not sure about a burn blister... anyone know?

I wouldn't. From what I remember, you shouldn't drain them period. The fluid helps heal the wound. Unless I'm thinking of something else...

If its a fresh burn apply ice for at least 30 minutes- it works wonders if applied immediately.

I looked it up, try keywords like:
blister burn treatment etc....

Most suggest you don't drain it.

Ice the 1st day.... then pop it.... and cut the skin off of the blister.
sounds cruel but it will heal faster...
Just had one on my finger and remember from High School football this is what the coaches did... and it works.... don't let her watch when you cut the skin off....

Nope, don't drain. Is any of the skin blackened? If so, don't fuck around. Get her to the ER or a doctor. If it's just red and white with some blistering, just put some silver sulfadiazine cream on some gauze and wrap it up. That will make it feel lots better. You should be able to pick up a tube of that stuff at any grocery store.

Ice can keep away the pain that comes the next day if it is applied soon enough.

yeah , i dont know why medics say that.
If you pop it - it will dry up pretty quick.

On the other hand, it will take a long time for that liquid stuff to go away somewhere if you dont do anything to it.

Burns get infected very easily. Popping blisters will cause open wounds before the tissue underneath has begun to heal making it susceptible to infection. The blisters will pop eventually or may go down on their own when the tissue below is healing. When a burn is fresh, the last thing you want to do is pop the blisters.

I know this old timer when I used to work at the local auto parts store years ago, he's one of those guys that really knows alot of self remedies. He even made his own teethe out of gold rings and shit he melted down, amazing.

Anyways I recall him getting a bad burn on his ring finger. (he arched it on a car battery with a wrench) totally fryed the total circumference of his finger down to the flesh. The first thing he did was run in after a bottle of wd-40 and started spraying it on his finger. The coolness relieved the pain and I'm not sure what the lubricant part helped or not. Then he kept it bandaged up and applyed the liquid from inside those little Vitamin "E" pills throughout the day. The little squishy ones. I was completely amazed at how fast he healed up.

This is not a GFY BS story, I saw it with my own eyes.

Hope it helps Brutha,

Cheers,
BV

That is just it, EXACTLY. I work in a hospital and all the docs and nurses say DON'T pop. The blister keeps the wound clean. It will eventually pop on its own or better still the fluid will reabsorb and help speed the healing process. Especially with the burn on her face....go get some burn cream and gauze and be very careful for the next few days. Sorry she got burned, hope things go well from now on.

Yep, this is absolutely true. It is a BUGGER though trying to get the gel out of the pills.

I would take her to a doctor for treatment.

It is going to leave a scar. How much of one depends on how it is treated.

With it being on her face, and knowing how most chicks are about their looks, I would play it safe.

i made the mistake of listening to what old teachers had to say. like in weight training they teach you to roll your shoulders when doing shrugs and when you do military presses to do them behind your neck. then later on i hear from several people and read in magazines that it can totally fuck up your shoulders. not to mention the several other things they teach you to do wrong because they are uneducated.

Being a nurse for 6 years, I have seen doctor's treat MANY minor burns. Their method was this:

Cleanse the skin on and around the blister with betadine solution or alcohol
Drain the blister using a -sterile- needle
Apply Neosporin or a comparable antibiotic ointment
Bandage

Doc's advice was to NOT remove the skin until the burn has healed underneath. He advised his patients that the blister was much more likely to burst by allowing it to retain the fluid, and that by puncturing and draining it with a sterile needle produced a much smaller opening, hence less risk of infection, than if the blister burst accidently. The story about "the fluid helps it heal" is an old wives' tale.

Of course, you should take her to the doc, because the degree of severity in a burn can be difficult to tell. I personally wouldn't touch it and would let the doc handle it.
