Talk to General Physician on Scald And Wound

person-avatar

Asking For Self, Male 24, Jhelum

I accidentally spilled boiling hot water over myself and subsequently a few liquid-filled blisters appeared, which i popped and the liquid got drained. I peeled off the blackened loose skin that was left. The wound looks like this now (In the Picture). I have been applying Quench cream generously over the wound. Should I cover my wound with any bandage, which wouldn't stick to it? Also, how long will it take for this wound to heal? Will it leave any permanent scarring? And does this cream help in treating this wound?

Respected, don't use quench and other things.
wash it properly with normal saline than apply Duoderm Extrathin dressing over it and cover it with simple guaze.
change this dressing after 2 days than repeat the same
after 2 to 3 dressings your wound healed with minimal scarring.
