Question 1 (Burn Type)
First - degree burns are minor, affecting the outer layer of skin. For first - degree burns, running cool water over the burn and not popping blisters (since there are usually no blisters in first - degree burns, but the care of cooling and not interfering with the skin is appropriate) is the correct first - aid. Second - degree burns have blisters and more severe damage, and third - degree burns are the most severe, requiring different treatment.
Hypothermia, heat stroke, stroke, broken bone, head injury, and third - degree burn are all serious injuries that can be life - threatening or cause permanent damage. Back strain, first - degree burn, heat exhaustion, scratch on leg, ankle sprain, headache, sore throat, and cut on arm are either minor or can be treated with basic first - aid without immediate emergency response.
Second - degree burns on the extremities, face, or groin are serious because these areas have special functions (like the face for breathing, eating, and appearance, groin for major blood vessels and organs, and extremities for movement) and the burns can lead to complications such as infection, loss of function, or scarring. So, 911 should be called.
