White, Yellowish Exposed Skin With Broken Blood Vessels With Line Of Red Along Edge, Painful Calf. History Of Burning The Calf. Normal?

Early sat morning I burned my calf on a motorcycle the blistered top layer came off while I slept. The exposed area was all white then yellowish with broken blood vessels and a thin line of red had appeared along one edge, like a very thin bright red pen outline. Is this normal. It is very painful and seem to come in waves

Hi,
Thanks for contacting HCM
According to your description ( I burned my calf on a motorcycle the blistered top layer came off while I slept) suggest that you have superficial burn it requires local application of silverulfadiazene creame and antibiotic and injection of tetvac.

Thanks

Hi,
Due to burn blister burst open leaving whitish and congested area.
This is common appearance after peeling of skin.
This wound is prone for infection so go for short antibiotic medicine course after consulting your doctor.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
Ok and take care.
