Symptoms of burn injuries

Symptoms of burn injuries
It is important to treat burns immediately after they occur. Some symptoms include, but are not limited to:

  • blisters
  • pain
  • peeling skin
  • red skin
  • shock
  • swelling
  • white or charred skin

Pain is not an indicator of the severity of a burn. Some of the most serious burns can be painless. Signs of shock are pale and clammy skin, weakness, bluish lips and fingernails, and a decrease in alertness.

Burns can become infected. Watch for increased pain, redness, swelling, drainage from the burn, swollen lymph nodes or red streaks spreading from the burn toward the heart.
