Post Burn Surgery

Burns are produced by extended heat by pre electnic  chemical  exposure and can range in severity from moderate to severe and lethal. The severity is determined mostly by the amount of time spent exposed to the fire and the overall area charred. The mildest burn is a first-degree burn. It refers to a burn that only affects the skin's top layer. Such burns are quickly cured and frequently do not leave a scar if treated properly and on time. A second-degree burn penetrates the skin deeper than a first-degree burn and necessitates more medical attention than a first-degree burn. The most severe burn is a third-degree burn. It affects your body's muscles and can even reach the bone. This sort of burn necessitates substantial medical attention, including surgery, for treatment.

Minor burns sustained in the kitchen can be treated using burn creams and ointments. The initial line of treatment is to run cold water over the burnt area, followed by applying the ointment. Significant burns, on the other hand, may necessitate skin grafts, surgery, and urgent care. These burns can be fatal if they spread across a big portion of the body. When it comes to burns, it is critical to get medical attention in a hospital. There should be no pause in treatment.

Treatment of post-burn scar contractures focuses on improving functional mobility, reducing tension, and enhancing aesthetic outcomes. Common approaches include

  • Physical Therapy: Regular stretching exercises and splinting to prevent further tightening and improve range of motion.
  • Pressure Garments: Custom-fitted compression garments help reduce scar thickness and improve appearance.
  • Topical Treatments: Silicone sheets or gels to manage scar formation and improve elasticity.
  • Surgical Interventions: Procedures such as Z-plasty, skin grafting, or tissue expansion may be performed to release contractures and restore mobility.
