A member asked:
Is it normal to get joint pain and stiffness with a 2nd degree burn on hand?

Hand stiffness...: .... Can most certainly accompany a hand burn. In more severe cases, physical therapists will make a splint to position the hand in the correct position, while the burn heals. Best to have your burn evaluated while it's still in the early stages of things. See your doctor.

Some yes: Becuz of the injury and edema, there can be some joint pain and stiffness. You need to see your doctor to make sure things are not becoming infected. You also need to ask him for exercises to prevent permanent loss of motion.
