I dunno anything about burns, but this doesn't sound good. D:
Could you see a doctor?

sounds like it could be infected, do you not have a gp or an emergency dept you could go too, get checked out, get your burn dressed and given anti biotics if it's infected...if it has swollen up, don't leave it



Something has changed within me, something is not the same, I'm through with playing by the rules of someone elses game. Too late for second guessing, too late to go back to sleep, its time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap....
Somethings I cannot change, but till I try I'll never know...

Big hugs to all my friends on here, thanks for your constant support - love you guys

As Hollz suggested, is there some kind of emergency place you could go to? Even if it's just to be safe.

Better to be safe than sorry, though. Clean it well. Maybe cover it.

It probably isn't infected due to the fact it has come like it so quickly.

Do you want to PM me with more details on what the burn and surrounding area looks/ feels like (including the size/ position of both), when you did it, if you've looked after it at all (and how). How you did it may also help me. Also things like if you have any other injuries in the area which may be the cause of it.
