Managing Itching and Skin Irritation After a Burn Injury

Itching and skin irritation are common issues faced by burn survivors, with about 65% experiencing significant itching. This discomfort is often due to nerve damage, making the sensation more intense than typical wound healing. Effective management includes frequent moisturization, lukewarm baths, and possibly medications prescribed by healthcare providers.

Over-the-counter lotions and creams designed for itch relief can also be beneficial. Persistent itching can disrupt sleep and daily activities, so finding a comprehensive skincare routine is crucial for comfort and recovery.
