    Glossary Burns

    injuries to skin from heat, chemicals, or radiation

    Burns refer to injuries to the skin and underlying tissues caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. They are classified into three degrees: first-degree burns affect only the outer layer of skin (epidermis), second-degree burns extend into the underlying layer (dermis), and third-degree burns penetrate through all layers of the skin, potentially affecting deeper tissues. Proper treatment varies depending on the severity and extent of the burn.
