Hi, thanks for using HCM.
Usually superficial burn as in your case are very painful and require time to heal. Regular cleaning as you are doing is required and medications to reduce pain and inflamation is essential. Antibiotics are necessary to prevent secondary bacterial infection.
Any signs of showing worsening of wound requires inspection by doctor to rule out infection of wound. Signs like pus discharge
