radiation, friction or fire. Most of us must have experienced the
condition once in our lifetime. Burns can be categorized into three
types - first degree, second degree and third degree, depending on the
severity of the skin damage caused. While first degree burns cause
damage to the top layer of the skin and get healed in a day or two,
second degree burns are more severe and causes blisters. The latter are
