just a few minutes ago, my hair straightener touched the back of my thighhh (400 degrees!) how should i prevent a scar or mark from appearing? Thank youu! =]I just got a burn on my thigh from my hair straightener?!??!?
Ice it maybe?? how did you even burn your thigh anyways?!? is your hair really long or something? lol!I just got a burn on my thigh from my hair straightener?!??!?
Immediately upon burning yourself, immerse the affected area in cool water. Ideally, you should immerse the burn for 10-15 minutes; if that isn't possible wrap a cool, damp cloth over it and change periodically. The goal is to reduce the temperature of the tissue. If you're fast and the burn isn't bad, you may be able to reduce the severity and avoid blistering.
If the burn blisters, add a bandage and change as necessary. Be very gentle and do not pop the blister - doing so will increase the risk of infection, which will worsen any scarring. Use vitamin E on it once or twice daily until the scar fades.
apply vinegar to the burn...it will pull the pain out... DO not to pick the scab or the dead skin or blister.....let the skin come off on it's own...even if it feels OK after a few days....let your leg heal ....on it's own..just keep using vinegar...it will scar...but not bad.
