Entire Body System
- Pain
An immature donor site is red; it may be painful and itch. An immature donor site may also have scars that are red. Occasionally, donor sites become raised. [healthpartners.com]
If my child's burn is still painful after I have cooled it for 5 minutes and covered it, what should I do? The chances are the burn will still be painful. Don't forget to give your child some pain medicine and reassure your child to remain calm. [healthychildren.org]
This helps restore the skin’s function, reduces pain, and improves the cosmetic appearance for injured patients. [tgh.org]
Next, this treatment stimulates natural collagen and elastin production to improve the healing process in order to ease pain and restore mobility. [lpgmedical.com]
However, most of these surgical approaches are associated with considerable morbidity, involve a lengthy painful process, time off work, and admission(s) to the hospital. [msac.gov.au]
- Swelling
It produces many of the symptoms we associate with allergic responses, including swelling, rashes and itchiness. In this process, your body recognizes some foreign agent — something you’re allergic to, such as pollen or grass — on your skin. [blog.medstarwashington.org]
Common side effects of laser treatments include redness, swelling, hyperpigmentation, itching, and the formation of new scars. [verywellhealth.com]
If you continue to have a great amount of discomfort, such as pain and swelling, tell your doctor on your next visit. Scarring Discoloration is generally associated with scarring. [uihc.org]
Look for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, or pus. For third-degree burns, go to the hospital as soon as possible. Even if the burn is small or first-degree, check with a doctor if it doesn’t heal within a week. [healthline.com]
This helps stop the burning process and decreases pain and swelling. Do not put ice on a burn. Do not rub a burn, because this can worsen the injury. Do not break blisters as this can increase the risk of infection at the burn site. Cover the burn. [healthychildren.org]
- Surgical Procedure
This may be due to confounding with other variables, in particular, healing within 14 days and multiple surgical procedures. [burnstrauma.biomedcentral.com]
Fat Graft This surgical procedure can be used if your burn scars are uneven and depressed in some places. [verywellhealth.com]
Your procedure will take place at the University of Michigan Hospital which provides state-of-the-art surgical suites and recovery areas. The majority of these procedures are completed on an outpatient basis. [uofmhealth.org]
The treatment of choice is surgical excision with or without grafting or flap. For those patients unfit for any surgical procedure, the recommended treatment is radiation therapy. [scielo.org.za]
This scarring can only be minimised by various physical therapy measures and plastic surgical procedures but not eliminated completely. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The patient reported less erythema, less discomfort, and an overall “softening” of his scar. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
Burn classification illustrates the extent of injury based on the structures and properties of the skin affected: In erythema (superficial reddening of the skin), the epidermis is inflamed and presents as hot to touch, reddened and painful area of skin [bio-oilprofessional.co.uk]

- Sweating
Unlike skin, it does not have hairs, sweat glands or blood vessels. It may look shiny and is often a different color from the skin around it. When someone is burned, they are often left with a scar after the skin is done healing. [healthpartners.com]
Despite assiduous efforts in traditional scar management, severe scars often persist to significantly diminish quality of life by disfigurement, pain, itchiness, inability to sweat, abnormal heat sensitivity, and by contractures restraining the motion [msac.gov.au]
Malignant transformation rarely occurs in grafted skin, and hence, rapid epithelization and so prompt skin grafting should be promoted. [5], [9] A previously published study suggests, based on the glandular origin of the neoplasm, both sweat gland cancer [ccij-online.org]

Itching is known medically as pruritus. Itching often is caused by a substance called histamine. Histamine is a key part of the body’s immune system. [blog.medstarwashington.org]
At his 9-month follow-up appointment, the patient reported total resolution of pruritus and pain within the scar. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]

- Skin Thickening
This tendency decreases as your new skin thickens. If blisters occur, you can obtain instructions on how to care for them in the burn clinic or from your physician. Cold Because your new skin is thinner, it will be more sensitive to cold. [uihc.org]

Treatment
For the majority of patients, optimal results typically take at least four treatments. The number of treatments and results will vary depending on each patient’s condition. Both adult and pediatric patients can expect to be sedated during treatment. [tgh.org]
To evaluate these treatments (laser, punch biopsies, and no treatment), 3 small areas will be chosen in a study scar area that meets specific criteria to receive. [clinicaltrials.gov]
Treatments for burn scars generally fall under four main categories: over the counter topical treatments, non-surgical specialist procedures, laser therapy, and surgery. [verywellhealth.com]
What treatments provide relief for burn scar itching? The traditional treatment for itchiness is antihistamine. But because central itch isn’t caused by histamine, antihistamine pills and most itch-relief creams won’t always help. [blog.medstarwashington.org]
Doctors recommend getting such treatments as soon as the burn injuries have healed. How is the procedure performed? As burn scar removal is not an emergency procedure, the patient and the doctor can discuss the treatment method longer. [docdoc.com.sg]
Prognosis
These parameters are fundamental in the assessment of the vital prognosis and modulate the therapeutic indications in emergency. [traitement-cicatrices.com]
Prognosis is primarily related to the local extent of the disease, its anatomical location and the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis. No single type of scar appeared to carry a worse prognosis. [medbc.com]
Due to the low prevalence of neoplastic lesions in BSs, there has been disagreement regarding their clinical features, methods of treatment, and hence prognosis. [ccij-online.org]
