Superficial burn it is.
Apply
T bact ointment + fucidine ointment in 1:1ratio clean it with Savlon n apply in a thin layer two times.
Time telling is difficult as how his body reacts to heal is key factor. As its winter healing. Is fast in winter season.
You can add homeopathy medicine for early healing.

It looks like superficial burns
Apply coconut oil to reduce pain and irritation
It will take almost 2-3 months to get properly healed. It can take more time also.
Don't apply anything other than medicine and coconut oil before consulting.

this looks like a superficial (1st-degree or superficial partial) scald burn, which usually heals well in children. The skin usually starts blending with normal skin over 4–8 weeks.
In some children, mild color difference can take 3–6 months to fully normalize.
