Diagnostic Questions for Third Degree Burn
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Did you sustain any burns?
- In the area that was burnt, does the hair break off easily?
- Do you have any skin problems?
- Do you have skin blisters?
Treatment of Third Degree Burn
Immediate medical care in a hospital is necessary. Treatment depends on the extent and location of the burns. Cleaning and removing dead skin and tissue from the burned area is required. Intravenous (IV) fluids containing electrolytes, pain medications, and antibiotics may be administered. Antibiotic ointments or creams are applied. Skin grafting and reconstruction might be required.

Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
