My niece's burnt foot, pics WARNING graphic...

Oh my that does look painful.
Was she wearing shoes? If not it's a reminder for us to wear protective gear on our feet when we cook.

OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! But I think it looks good. I have seen a whole lot worse....BELIEVE me! My son was burned May 4th of this year in an explosion, 82% of his body, 2nd. and 3rd. degree burns so I know all about autographs, dermagraphs and epicel. He is still in the hospital and will be for some time. Her biggest threat is from infection so tell her to be extra careful and do everything they tell her to do, no matter how painful! That looks like a horriable 3rd. degree burn, deep into the flesh and as long as it is open, she is open to infection. Have her be EXTRA, EXTRA careful!

Thank you so much for the advice, I am so terribly sorry to hear about your son, I can only imagine what he is going through, and you as well, yes we are very thankful it was only her foot and that things appear to be going well, I will pass on the info you gave me and I really appreciate it.

Charlene was wearing a sock at the time, but it just melted competely.

OMG...looks very painful. I hope your Necie has a speedy recovery. I'll send good thoughts her way.

When the skin finally does begin to heal over I highly recommend vitamin E ointment. It's a miracle ointment and one could hardly tell I have had 3rd degree burns across my hand. Any over-the-counter stuff would be better than nothing but mine was a "scrip" from the doctor and I swear by it. Good luck.

Wow, that looks certainly painful. I can't imagine how much pain she endured and how much time it'll take ot completely heal.
