Question

What’s the difference between the degrees of burns and how would you tell them apart?

In:

Answer 1

1st deg is some redness and warmth in the skin, and is usually a slightly painful to touch.

2nd degree is kind of broad. 2nd can vary from deep redness and hot skin, to the formation of blisters, and is can be very painful.

3rd is tissue death. In 3rd, the skin is so burned it can peel off or starts falling away. 3rd can be extremely painful, or sometimes damage deep enough tissue to destroy the nerves and be painless. So it is possible to receive 3rd degree and not immediately notice. ALWAYS seek medical treatment if you suspect 3rd degree burns.
