We understand the pain and discomfort of burns can cause. At Michoes Medical Centre, we have experienced doctors who can treat all types of burns. From minor to severe, our medical centre offers 24/7 emergency care, including specialized orthopedics for burn victims.
Our Burn Treatment Services
First-degree burns: We treat mild sunburns and other first-degree burns with topical creams and ointments. No need to see a doctor if the burn is minor and you’re otherwise healthy.
Second-degree burns (partial thickness burns): Our doctors will clean and dress your burn, apply antibiotic ointment, and cover it with a non-stick dressing. We may also prescribe pain medication or topical creams to help manage discomfort.
Third-degree burns: In these cases, our expert orthopedic surgeons will take care of the wound closure, prevent infection, and provide long-term management for your burn. You may need multiple surgeries and ongoing physical therapy.
Fourth-degree burns: Due to their severity, fourth-degree burns require immediate medical attention from our specialists in trauma care and surgery. We work closely with the patient’s family to ensure proper care and follow-up treatment.
Burns can lead to various complications, including infection, scarring, and nerve damage. By consulting us early on, you can minimize these risks and accelerate your recovery.
