Burns cause classified into three degrees areas of tissue damage.

Burns can be caused by fire, sunlight, (ultra violet rays), Hot objects or fluids, electricity etc:

First degree burns are least serious usually involving only the outer layer of skin (epidermis).

It usually involves redness an swelling and can be painful, but it doesn't burn to next layer.

Second degree burns. When the second layer of skin (dermis) also gets burned. sever redness and pain exist, usually with blisters and swelling.

3rd degree burns are the most serious. Layers of skin, fat, nerves, and even bones may be affected. Ares are charred ,black or white. And according to how much nerve damage done, you may experience severe pain, or no pain at all.

In all burn cases, it is essential to cool the area thoroughly, for the heated flesh can continue to do damage to deeper tissue.
