Leg burn with hot water...Applying silverex ointment, burnosaf ointemt , lizolib and dalacin tablet...But it has lots of iching n pain.. How to cure as soon as possible ..?

Burns can be painful and itchy, but with the right treatment, you can promote healing and reduce discomfort. Current Treatment You're already using: 1. Silverex ointment: Helps prevent infection and promotes healing. 2. Burnosaf ointment: Soothes and protects the skin. 3. Lizolib: An antibiotic ointment to prevent infection. 4. Dalacin tablet: An oral antibiotic to prevent infection. Additional Measures to Promote Healing and Reduce Discomfort 1. Keep the wound clean and dry: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Pat dry with a clean towel. 2. Apply a topical anesthetic cream: Over-the-counter (OTC) creams like lidocaine or benzocaine can help numb the area, reducing pain and itching. 3. Use a cool compress: Apply a cool, wet compress to the affected area to reduce itching and discomfort. 4. Take an oral antihistamine: If the itching is severe, an OTC antihistamine like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can help relieve itching and reduce the allergic response. 5. Keep the area moisturized: Once the wound is healed, apply a moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and promote skin elasticity.
