    Third-degree burns destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred.

    Explanation:

    The treatment of third-degree burns may require the process of skin grafting or the use of synthetic skin. Severe burns covering large parts of the body may need more intensive treatments such as intravenous (IV) antibiotics to prevent infection or IV fluids to replace fluids lost when skin was burned.

    3rd degree burns, as expected, are the most worrying, and the most severe. Basically, they are much deeper, this type of burn affects the entire dermis and still reaches subcutaneous tissues, destroying the nerves, hair follicles, sweat glands and blood capillaries. In some cases they even affect muscles and bone structures. These types of burns are whitish, dry, painless, deforming lesions that do not heal without surgical support. Therefore, the severity of the case will determine the likelihood and likelihood of complications and how the treatment will be.

    This type of burn requires even more care, even in some cases they can even put a person's life at risk. It is therefore recommended that you go to the hospital immediately, and immediately after the burn, put tap water or saline in the area. After this it is ideal to place a moistened gauze in saline on the affected region. Of course, let the doctor take care and determine the necessary care.
