burn removal cream - #18301
I am in a bit of a panic here. A couple of days ago, I accidentally spilled boiling water on my forearm while trying to cook. I thought I'd be fine, but the burn turned out to be worse than I expected. I’ve got this red, sensitive area that really hurts and peeling skin too. I went to the urgent care, and they suggested using a burn removal cream to help with the healing process. Thing is, I've never used this kind of cream before. Like, is there a specific burn removal cream that works better than others? Do they all actually help with scarring or is that just something they say? My cousin had a bad burn before and used a specific burn removal cream that made her skin heal pretty fast. I don’t want to make things worse, but also don’t know what to trust! Do these burn removal creams have any weird side effects? And like, how long till I might see an improvement? I mean, can I put it on more than once a day? This whole situation is stressing me out a little, and I just want to heal without leaving a nasty mark. I hope someone has some real experiences with burn removal cream and can help!
