What Are the Treatments for Chemical Burns?
Chemical burns may injure the surface of the skin as well as internal organs of the body. A chemical reaction or burn may not be immediately recognizable. Symptoms of a chemical burn on the skin include redness, swelling, rash and blisters. Many chemical burns are treated at home; yet, some are more severe and medical attention is required. Immediately calling 911 is essential if a person displays signs of difficulty breathing, seizing or remains unconscious.
