Is It Normal To Have Pain In Palm Post Steam Burn On Hands?
I received a steam burn on my left and right hand about a month ago. I went straight to A&E and had a burn cream and bandage applied. The side by my thumb on my left hand seemed to be effected but now I feel pain on the other side of my palm. It is now about a month since my burn, is this normal?
Hi, It seems that there might be having some infection on burn site. Go for one oral antibiotic medicine course for 5-7 days. Clean the affected part with antiseptic lotion and apply antibiotic cream. Keep the part open. Ok and take care.
