Question 2

I recently burned my thigh with hot water, and Ive been applying Silverex ointment to it, but it's still itching a lot and causing pain. What should I do to heal it as quickly as possible? Any advice on how to manage the itching and pain?

Accepted Answer

The itching and pain you are experiencing after applying Silverex ointment may be due to an allergic reaction or sensitivity to the silver sulfadiazine in the ointment. I recommend stopping the use of Silverex ointment and instead applying a gentle soothing cream like aloe vera gel or plain white petroleum jelly to help with the itching and pain. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen to help with the pain. Make sure to keep the burn clean and covered with a sterile dressing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
