Flush the area with water for 10-15 minutes to remove the source of the burning and cool the area. The water should be cool but not ice cold. A triple antibiotic or burn ointment can be used to help prevent infection and assist with the healing process. The burn should be loosely bandaged. Allow any blisters that form to drain on their own.

Why should one pursue a second degree?

You should consider a second degree if you wish to further your education particular to a specific career or it would lead to advancement within your current occupation. In this case it would be a vertical movement such as an associate to bachelor's degree, or bachelor's degree to master's degree, etc. You should consider a second degree if it leads to a specific career where the current degree does not meet the requirements of that profession. In this case the direction can be vertical, horizontal, or descending. For example, one who has an existing bachelor's degree in communication wishes to become a registered nurse, and can more easily accomplish this by taking an associate degree in nursing.

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!
