What Causes Sudden Burning Sensation, Swelling And Burnt Scar On Leg?

last night after my shower I got into bed and had this burning sensation on my leg. I then looked and saw 2 marks on my leg which at first felt like a really bad scratch then turned into what looks like a burn. It got swollen today, but has since gone down but the marks and painful burning sensation is still there. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having superficial skin burn on the part giving this sensation.
Apply ice pack.
Apply antibiotic cream.
You can take pain killer for burning.
Witih a day or two it will be alright.
Ok and take care.
