Suggest Treatment For Burn Mark And Blister On The Thumb
What degree burn do I have and how do i treat it? I burned my thumb on a pan this morning when i was getting it out of the oven. My thumb has a pencil eraser sized white mark on it and barely hurts. The symptoms of the burn are contradicting each other on the websites i checked. What my thumb is like: -very small white mark -not really a blister because its not a bubble -my thumb was on the pan for less than second -i ran it under cool water for 45 minutes after it happened -i put aloe on it about 6 times throughout the day (this happened about 14 hours ago but I am still curious) Also do I need a tetanus shot? Some websites said I do..
