Is Is Safe To Play After A Month Of Having 3rd Degree Burns?

I have plans to go with my friends to an thrill/water park during july 4th weekend. By that time, it will be 1 month after I got 2nd degree burns on 3% of my total surface area. I was wondering if by the one month mark that my burns are sufficiently healed that I can even expose them to the chemicals in the water? Or should I just skip the water park and just go on the roller coasters?
