The type of burn you're referring to is a 3rd degree burn, the worst kind. Skin is burnt and charred and needs to be replaced, and the flesh is burned down to muscle tissue.(This can also be referred to as a fourth-degree or "full thickness" burn.)First Degree burns are usually red skin with some blisters, while 2nd Degree burns are more serious, resulting in burning of the outer skin layer and some subsequent skin layers, but the skin isn't charred and can grow back without a graft.---This could be a close range gunshot wound. The lacerated muscle mass at the center surrounded by the charring area (perhaps also containing smoke powder) points towards a gunshot injury. Burn wise, this is obviously a thermal burn.

How do you halt the process of muscle atrophy?
Move. Muscles atrophy when they are not used enough. If the victim of muscle atrophy cannot move unassisted, move the muscle for them. Daily exercise of the muscle will replenish the range of motion. Note that it might be painful like stretching can sometimes be, but worse. Be careful not to put too much stress on the atrophied muscle, but it must be done unless the victim wants to revert permanently to the fetal position.
