General Medical Question - Urgent - Burn... NUMB!! *wound care*
Okay.. this morning.. I burned myself.. I burned over three cuts.. [method removed] Since then.. since the moment I did it.. my arm.. where I burned has been numb.. alot like someone injected me with that numbing thing the dentist gives you.. I can move my arm.. but its very numb... I'm pretty sure this isn't normal.. because I've burned myself with [method removed] before.. but it's never been this bad.. and it's never been numb.. so I'm not sure if this is particularly awful.. Thanks for reading and thanks for future advice. What can I do to feel my arm again? Because I'm kinda freaking out... thank you!!

I don't know why it's numb...
Look after it with the correct wound care and,if it doesn't get better in the next few hours or it gets worse, you lose movement/pins and needles/ numbness spreads go to the ER.
Hopefully a First aid advisor will come give you some advice soon..if not you could email them at firstaid@recoveryourlife.com
Stay Safe and Take Care

This could well be a very serious burn. I may well be wrong but I'd recommend going straight to ER and get it seen to. Take care. *hugs you*

Well it breaks my heart to see you this way,
The beauty in life, where's it gone?
And somebody told me you were doing okay,
Somehow I guess they were wrong.
