I think my brother's burn might be infected...?!


Question: I think my brother's burn might be infected....?
It's a round burn that goes through about three layers, he had put a band-aid on it for about a week and now it has a white ((as in snow white)) layer growing from the inside to the outside and he says it itches a bit. Could it be infected or is it just healing.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Sounds like its just healing. Have him rub some Aloe Vera lotion into it, that will take care of the itching and help prevent scarring. also, keep it covered with a dry bandage until it is completly healed.Health Question & Answer
