I accidentally burned myself on the forearm about a week ago. Immediately the top layer of skin was burned off leaving an open wound. I don't believe it was too deep, maybe just a few layers of skin deep. It is almost a perfect circle, the size of a pepperoni (looks like one too haha). I am a bit concerned that it may be infected. When it first happened I immediately put it under cold water for about 10-15 minutes and applied silver sulfadizine on it that i had left over at home from a previous incident. No blister was formed but the skin keeps scabbing up. I had it covered with a bandage but whenever I took the bandage off, the newly formed tissue/scab would come right off with the bandage. I am not too sure if that is what I want to happen or not to happen. The past two days i have been keeping it uncovered but keeping it as clean as I can. Still hurts to the touch and a yellowish liquid comes out whenever the scab is either cut open accidentally from daily actions or highly irritated. Is this normal or what should I do to follow up with this issue. I didn't think it was serious enough for real medical attention and thats my last option. Hopefully one of you can give me some insight.
