Understanding Burn Injuries
Burn injuries vary in severity and often require specialized medical care. Common types of burns include:
- Thermal burns (fire, explosions, hot surfaces)
- Electrical burns
- Chemical burns
- Scalding injuries
- Friction burns
Burns are typically classified by degree:
- First-degree burns – damage to the outer layer of skin
- Second-degree burns – damage extending into deeper skin layers
- Third-degree burns – severe tissue damage affecting nerves and muscles
- Fourth-degree burns – damage extending into bone and underlying structures
Severe burns often result in permanent injury and long-term disability.
