Burnt with steam iron

2020-03-26 06:10:31
This happened more than two weeks back. Visited the doctor and got proper medication and consultation done. Just wanted to know if this looks like it's healing because due to lock down, I'm avoiding stepping out of my house unless absolutely necessary. Does this wound looks better? It was a blister before which burst and I applied silverex on it and took dalacin c 300mg, dressing alternate days. Does this still require dressing? Can I now take shower as usual? It doesn't hurt or pain anymore.

Its healing....clean the wound with normal saline.If not available add salt to boiled water and when its warm clean with the help of cotton...can take bath... Calendula ointment or calendula tincture will help for further healing...
