Types and Degrees of Burn Injuries in Tampa

Burn injuries can vary in severity and are classified by the depth of tissue damage they cause. The four main categories of burn injuries are:

• First-Degree Burns: These superficial burns affect only the outer layer of skin. They cause redness, pain, and minor swelling, and typically heal within a few days to a week without scarring.
• Second-Degree Burns: These injuries extend into the second layer of skin. They cause blistering, severe pain, and redness, and may require medical treatment to prevent infection and promote healing. Second-degree burns often result in scarring.
• Third-Degree Burns: These burns destroy the first two layers of skin, potentially reaching the tissue underneath. The skin may appear white, black, or leathery. Numbness is also common as nerve damage may occur. Third-degree burns require extensive medical treatment and often lead to significant scarring and disfigurement.
• Fourth-Degree Burns: The most severe type of burn, fourth-degree injuries extend through the skin and tissue, damaging muscles, tendons, and bones. These life-threatening injuries often require amputation and carry a high risk of complications, such as infection and organ failure.
