Types of Burn Injuries

Burn injuries fall into one of three categories depending on the degree of severity of the injury:

• First degree burns: Only affect the epidermis (outer layer of skin), causing redness and pain. First degree burns will usually heal on their own, although first aid treatment including antibacterial ointments and bandages may be applied.
• Second degree burns: Damages the epidermis and the second layer of skin, or dermis. Causes swelling, blisters, and/or red, white, or splotchy colored skin. Second degree burns can often be painful, and more severe cases may result in scarring.
• Third degree burns: Burn injuries that reach down to the fat layer below the skin, or in more severe cases to underlying tissues including muscle and bone. Affected areas can look white, brown, or black. Third degree burns usually destroy nerve cells, causing the affected areas to become numb. Treatment involves intensive wound care and often skin grafts. Severe cases of extensive third degree burns to extremities may require amputation.
