A member asked:
I have a burn on my wrist that is about 2/3 inches long and a 1/2 inch wide. part of the burn is open but the majority is dark grey and leathery. it hurts but manageable. should i go to emergency care?

Yes: important veins & arteries pass thru this part of the body; you might better be sure that your burn didn´t hit any of those; even important nerves pass thru this site!! Go to ER; its not about the symptoms ots about the damage.
