What to Ask When Consulting a Burn Treatment Specialist

Burns are common injuries that can happen when the skin is exposed to heat, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. Swelling, redness, and skin peeling are all possible burn symptoms. Treatment for a burn can have a variety of benefits, such as pain relief, infection prevention, and a quicker recovery. You can reduce the risk of complications and hasten the healing process by getting care for a burn as soon as possible. At Columbia Urgent Care Clinic, we evaluate burn severity, treat the wound as needed, and prescribe medication to control pain and stop infections.
