Should you put peroxide on a second degree burn?
I have a second degree, possibly third. This happened on July fourth while lighting 3 sparklers at once! Really bad idea! After several days the fluid from the blister on my finger leaked out. I removed the skin left from the blister (which I was told you should NOT do! ) I was told by my mom(she is an RN) to clean with soap and water, apply burn cream( I've been using neosporin) then cover with a sterile bandage. Well I decided I should try cleaning it with peroxide. That was a horrible idea! It burned really bad! It caused a small blister on the raw area of the skin. I rinsed it off immediately and held a towel against my finger till it stopped burning! I had always thought peroxide was good for burns/cuts. I suggest nobody use peroxide on a second or third degree burn. By the way, Do NOT let the burn area dry out. This can cause it to crack and lead to infection!
