Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic

The black patches are most likely due to dead skin along with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), which is common after any inflammatory injury to the skin.
If it is a fresh burn, you may begin using a topical antibacterial e.g either silver sulphadiazine ointment Or 2% mupirocin ointment, twice daily and continue it till the dead skin peels off and for a few more days thereafter.
Once the dead skin peels you may use a moderately potent topical steroid e.g fluticasone propionate 0.05% cream for any post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation that is left over.
I would suggest that you visit a dermatologist in your region for a visual assessment of the exact skin condition and appropriate treatment.

Regards
