Burns Classification
Generally burns are divided into three categories, 1st, 2nd and 3rd degree. First degree burns are superficial and affect only the first layer of skin (the epidermis). Second degree burns injure both the first and second layer of skin (the dermis) and third degree burns destroy the epidermis and the dermis and may damage the tissue underneath the skin as well. Both second and third degree burns require immediate medical attention.
Common Causes of Burns
Burns have a number of causes; the most common types of burns are heat and thermal burns. These particular types of burns are generally caused by fire, steam, hot objects or hot liquids. Electricity, chemical, radiation and friction are the other leading causes of burn injuries. Many burns are avoidable, and are often caused by the negligence of others whether that is an employer, restaurant or other public place..
