Specializes in Urgent Care

See MD: No pain? Could be sign of third degree burn which is insensate or fourth if underlying structures are affected. Approx 9% BSA burn does the burn involve your joint or your hand? You need to see a burn surgeon at a burn center immediately. Need debridement of dead tissue infection control and evaluation of anatomical structures that may be injured. Go to ER for eval.
