Hello and welcome to Healthcamagic.
It is normal at certain degree and it may take up to 4 weeks till 2. degree burn heals. However if there is prolonged pus discharge fever or spreading redness then it may indicate complicated infection and you should see doctor for further evaluation.
I hope I have answered your query. I wish you a nice day.
