Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Third degree burns are severe and require immediate medical attention. The best way to treat a third degree burn is to cover the burned area with thick, sterile, non-fluffy dressings to protect it from infection and keep the area moist. Applying ointments or antiseptic spray can actually harm the burned tissue and cause further damage. Removing clothing stuck to the burn should only be done by medical professionals. Pouring iced water on the burn is not recommended as it can cause further damage to the burned tissue.
