How Long Should Burnt And Blistered Wrist Be Covered With Silver Solution?
My boyfriend burned his wrist when he took the cap off a radiator of the car he was working on, it blistered up and we put a silver solution from the drug store and covered it. Now should we keep it covered or what? Its been about 4 days since this happened and we don t know what to do next. It gets dry and pulls and cracks, which leads to it bleeding, what should we do?
