Could red dots on my arm indicate 2nd degree burns?
Patient's Query
I am almost 14,I burned myself with hot oil,now there are red dots on my arm.maybe 2nd degree burns
Answered by Dr. Anju Methil
The spots on your arm that turn red indicate inflammation caused by the hot oil and can be a sign of a burn. Second-degree burns are usually characterized by red skin, swelling, and blistering. It’s best to start off doing this by cooling the area down with lukewarm water for a good 10-15 minutes then wash it gently with a mild soap. Use a clean dressing to protect the skin. Be sure to watch for a rise in redness or the appearance of pus, which are indicators of infection. If you are enduring acute pain or the symptoms worsen, then be sure to visit a dermatologist for comprehensive care and treatment.
