Hi all,

i burnt my hand/ arm a couple days ago after spilling about half a pan of boiling pasta water on it. It was pretty painful for a few hours and had a couple small blisters which have popped. It’s still a bit red/ sore a couple days later, will this heal ok or is there a cream or anything anyone could recommend ? Many thanks all !

They say that anything covering an area larger than a 2p needs to be seen by a HCP, so maybe pop down to the chemists and speak to a pharmacist.

Keep it clean and dry and it will be fine.

Keep it covered to stop infection. it may blister again.
