@@kunwarvyapaksingh7562 well it may possible after some decades..
Yes I’ve been waiting for this video thanks a lot lol
One thing that you did not mention about electrical burns of the arc flash type:
During the electrical arc flash copper is molten to temperatures higher than the surface of the sun. The metal vaporizes and the victim gasps from the sudden explosion and inhales the molten metal where it burns and destroys the lungs. Most victims die from asphyxiation.
Any chance you can sell the leftover meat
My son had 3rd and 4th degree burns on 30% of his body 14 years ago and it took many surgeries, skin graphs, amputations, physical therapy, plus laser surgery to get where we are now. He is a healthy teenager, but this was a VERY long road. Take burns seriously. Thank you for this video... it took a lot for me to watch it though.
Your son sounds like a badass. That's a tough thing to overcome, because burns fucking *suck* . Literally the worst type of pain.
But you did it, so proud of you
What happened if you don't mind me asking. How old was he?
@@optimistprime2751 he had just turned 2 and he walked backwards into a firepit we used to have that had a cast iron pot lined. This happened because my husband was walking back and forth bringing more wood and didn't notice that he wasn't being followed anymore. I happen to be just inside the house and heard him yell out. We no longer have that pit, we planted a tree in that spot. Thankfully we had just started the fire, or it could have been more severe.
@@queenseabee8113 what a nightmare. I'm glad he is ok now. And I'm glad you are too.
I had patches of first and a single spot of a second degree burn many months ago from me being stupid with really hot copper, 0/10 experience, and it was probably in the top 3 most painful experiences I had except it lasted for far longer than the other two. My face and one of my hands was covered in bandages for a while to hide the discolored parts and a blister on my face that I thought was huge, but looking at these photos was actually pretty small. I’m hoping the scars do fade a bit more with time. I feel horrible for whomever has to deal with large patches of 2nd degree burns or the complications arising from further ones. Thanks for the vid, medical stuff isn’t really my thing but I found this quite interesting and informative
holy shit f in chat king
I swear 2nd degree burn is painful af. My finger got one because I was careless with the splashing oil while cooking. And 1 hour later I cannot stop putting my finger on ice or cold water.

When I was six, I had a sunburn so bad that it was officially a second degree burn over my shoulders and back. A babysitter let me play in the pool WAY too long. I'm 43 now, and remember the horrible pain as if it happened in my teens. I still remember how horrible all the blistering was. Thankfully it healed with no scarring, but my shoulders are still nearly solid freckles.
same here, except it happened only 2/3 years ago… the skin on my face felt like it nearly fried off and was peeling off for weeks, worst physical pain i’ve ever felt
happened to me on the shoulders and upper arms a couple of years ago when I was hiking and forgot to wear sunscreen. I had literal slices of my skin falling off at one point and had to keep my arms wrapped up. Several people told me it was the worst sunburn they had ever seen. Also my shoulders are covered in freckles now too but I think they're cute! ♥
Yo same! Only in my case it was because I didn't yet understand the wonders of sunscreen.
I HAD THE SAME PAIN?!
though I just forgot to put sunscreen on my shoulders, not on my back though.
It was between a 1st and 2nd Degree burn
Sounds like u have weak skin

You right bro
Indeed! Happy Friday the 13th! Muahahahaha! 😋
Didn't expect to see you here sir! Lol!!
It's nice to see the 4th degree finally explained. Many years ago I had some molten steel burn through my protective gear and get to my arm in a small area. The docs called it 4th degree, and I thought they were making it up.
How did that heal?
Lol you legitimately thought your doctors were just making stuff up?Where do you live where thats being practiced by other doctors? Why didnt you ask them to clarify?
@@vocexseta It was a small area, but it healed completely fine. There is still a visible scar.
@@h91rex100 Back then, this was over 25 years ago, we were taught that there was only 3 degrees of burns. The library was the only source of information, and anything to dispute what we were taught in school, over 30 years ago, was not as easy as a google search.
Lets just say a huge thanks to the people who donated their bodies to science to help us learn these amazing things.
Yeah, they sacrifice so we can learn.
I'm a person who survived a house fire and a 3rd to 4th degree burn, I'm luckily alive but it was a very long procedure to recover myself, took me 3-2 years to get it done. This video actually proves a lot for me since I didnt knew in such young age.
I broke my ankle a year and a half ago. It was an extremely bad break. I was told I had "fracture blisters". My skin swelled so much it blistered like a burn. Now that it's healed it looks like a burn scar. I have been curious about how this happens. Is this a topic you guys would explain/educate us on?
I broke my ankle in mid February of this year and they tried giving me a boot. Something started “burning” in there and I had to stop wearing the boot. HUGE blisters formed. I ended up with an external fixator till the blisters healed and then surgery to place hardware. The blister scars are still visible.
@@gryffynda1 Sounds awful. They did surgery putting in the screws and plates without my skin healing. They said my skin was very delicate and was "slipping". Gross! and Ouch!!

@@omerfarukugur7070 ah, I see.
Plus don't forget that lesser degree burns form around that main burn and they still definitely have the nerve endings.
@@omerfarukugur7070 They can be destroyed faster than they can send signals to the brain
I remember having a really severe sunburn as a kid. My back blistered up almost entirely. It was painful as hell and I couldn't wear any upper body clothing for about a week. Even after having burned the hell out of my hands working in fast food before, I'd still say the sunburn was worse.
Was that holiday at Chernobyl?
LITREALLY SAME HAPPEND TO ME
Same.... it was a school field trip for me.... came home with a 3rd degree sunburn from the back of my head down my neck, whole back and legs.. took about 4 months to fully recover from it, couldn't wear a shirt for about 3 months and my back was nearly entirely a literal green bubble.. worst experience of my life... I was 13 then I'm 18 now.. the back of my neck is the only thing surprisingly that never fully healed.... and yes I had lots of sunscreen on.. spf 80 to be exact.. it turned out to be a bad bottle though..........isn't summer fun
@@a_random_viewer_7169 you should, as i would definitely sue that manufacturer of that sunscreen, because with that much high factor of protection, you should not have any consequence.
I just had my first thermal burn death at work (coroner’s investigation/autopsy). Super interesting lesson, and thank you once again. This channel is an amazing wealth of information.
I had 3rd degree sun poisoning as a kid. Went on a school trip to a water park. I'm whiter than white so I fry quite easily. I also took off my glasses, trusting my friends to keep me safe since I'm nearsighted. Yeah. I got split up so I didn't have sun screen on for 8 hours. I had blisters the size of dollars and moving my shoulders made me howl in agony. After about 3-4 weeks of healing, I was back to being whiter than white again.

I see you've had bad sunburn in the past.. I was surprised he knew , but he said the moles you have are from that and not your normal moles and to keep covered as these are ones likely to turn cancerous if I get burnt again... be careful xx but yes painful xx

I had first second and third degree burns on my feet after walking through burning leaves in highschool. It's been 4 years and I still have no feeling in parts of one of my toes. This was a fascinating video on burns!
This channel actually helped me decide if I genuinely wanted a tattoo or not. The vid about tattoos gave me confidence in my decision.
Got a slight boiling water burn on my finger once, and I was NOT expecting that to feel as horrible as it did. Just kept getting worse and worse over the next few hours, despite not looking like anything happened in the first few seconds. The wound was only slightly discolored at first, then my skin started to fall off over the next few hours. Luckily, it was only a small part, and didn't break the muscle, but man, it hurt!
I have a 2x2cm scar on my middle finger from a 140C or something like that molten sugar burn. I accidentally dipped part of my finger into it when I was pouring it out but didnt drop the pot to not make a mess so it burned me till I finished.
@@Zyczu55 fasho that’s WHY U DONT PUT UR MIDDLE FINGER UP
The most painful burns, at least during the initial stages post-burn are second degree burns.
What I do when I burn myself, and just when I'm in pain in general is I remind myself "it can always get worse."
It takes my mind off of it.
Working in kitchens for 18 years I've been burned many times, about once a week. I can confirm 3rd degree hurts less. My last one barely felt like anything but I could smell the burnt flesh. Worst pain was a mostly 1st degree steam burn over my whole hand and part of my forearm
Have you thought about a new line of work?
@@AceNinja2112 If you said that to every chef who got a burn there would be no restaurants. I got way too many burns working as a line cook.
@@AceNinja2112 Actually, I'm starting to transition to management as the owners approach retirement if that counts
Agree on the steam burns, somehow those hurt more than the times ive accidentally touched the inside of our merry chefs
Steam/scald burns are AWFUL!!
My only burn experience was a second degree burn on one of my fingers from a welding incident at school. I didn't bother it as it healed and I'm only left with a small slightly dark patch from it thats barely visible. Very interesting experience
This was fascinating. Glad TH-cam suggested it.
I'm so sorry that he was burnt.
I am a recovering burn Survivor. 52% of my body.
3rd, 4th and one 5th.
My left butt cheek was burnt clear to my Left SI Joint and the whole front side was just bone on bone. WHAT is very very very important is to stop being active because everything underneath needs that circulation and stretching. Burn's also effects your nervous system. Your nerve endings have a positive and negative end, if only one side dies out it leaves either the positive or negative floating around which tries to connect to another half nerve relay and you will get electrical shocks off and on.
I had to have skin grafting and I was allergic to the baby pig skin they are using so they had to cut the skin from area's that were not burnt. So 98% of my body was traumatized. I'm greatful my face and my Holy of Holies wasn't touched. That was back on December 7 , 1995 .
I had acid thrown on me, it was a hate crime. The intent was to disfigure my face. As I stated God saved my face female parts which was a miracle because both of my inner thighs received 4th degree burns. I only tell you this because your Son's will be recovering from the burn's his whole life. Burn's heal from the inside out and without movement everything will start to seize up from the scar tissue you can't see under the skin . Again I am so so so so so very sorry that your sun was burnt. Be very proud of him for everything he accomplishes because normal has changed for him.
Oh my god i can't even imagine what you've been thru, how many years took you to recover enough to continue with your life?
is there a way to contact you?
your story needs to be shared
I’m so sorry this happened to you! What a horrible act!
I’m so sorry this happened to you. I’m glad you took the time to educate and allow yourself to heal. I hope all is well and keep your head up
Thats horrible, im glad that your face and female parts were safe. I hope that person who threw acid at you is locked up because they do not deserve to live freely after they traumatise a person by trying to burn them alive
Man. The most I’ve ever gotten was a first degree burn, and that was due to my own negligence. I can’t even imagine the PAIN someone must have endured with third and fourth degree burns. My heart goes out to them.
My own first degree burn… well, long story short, my left arm suffered tremendous neurological damage as a baby. This left me with little feeling on the arm. And limited mobility. And as an interesting fact, I have no feeling whatsoever in my left pinkie. None. I could chip it off and probably wouldn’t feel it. Anyway. One day, my dumbass didn’t notice (because I literally couldn’t feel it) that I had let my pinkie finger on my left hand rest on the lid of a very hot pot. And got a burn I never noticed until my skin bubbled and boiled. Even still, it didn’t hurt. Don’t worry, I didn’t pick at it. Just let it rest. But yeah, scary stuff.
3rd and 4th degree burns don't really hurt. 2nd degree is the most painful because your nerves get exposed. On 3rd and 4th degree burns your nerves are completely destroyed so you don't feel much
@@lowkeystupidasf But the lasting results of third and fourth degrees must hurt right? A phantom pain or something
@@lowkeystupidasf 3rd degree burn hurts just as much as 2nd degree when the burn is occurring.
@@cancertourmaline6798 ask Darth Vader
@@cancertourmaline6798 well when you don't treat them right pain may occur. But if you do something for the wound it really doesn't hurt, no matter if third or fourth degrees...
The worst I’ve had was a second degree burn from wearing weak sunscreen at the beach in Galveston Texas. The pain afterward was truly beyond description. I couldn’t move my arms and shoulders at all. I couldn’t lay down on my back at all. It was awful.
The next time I went to the beach, I was wearing a swim shirt.
You guys are the best!! So informative ❤️❤️❤️
As unlikely or strange as it may sound my grandfather had 91% of 3rd-degree burn (initially we thought it was 70%, but he literally had no skin except on his heels) due to the methane gas leak in our rural 'vacation' house almost 10 years ago. The night when we left he just turned on an electric kettle, a spark happened, and then an explosion - the whole brick building turned into rubble, and neighbors as far as several hundred meters lost their windows. He was immediately put in the hospital, where he regained consciousness. He survived for 14 days afterward despite being 70 years old! Unfortunately, the Ukrainian hospitals are far from the best, and combining that with his heart eventually failing - it was difficult to reanimate him since there was no skin of his own to use a defibrillator effectively and the pigskin proved to be quite helpless in this instance. Still, we actually thought he is going to make it - hard to imagine what his life would've been then.
Царство Небесне! (Ukr. for R.I.P.)
The lesson here is to be extremely careful installing and using gas!!!
Why the quack someone want to reanimate 70 years old with f-ing 90% burn🤔
@@nadMoZzzg maybe because some people have the desire to live?! For their families, for grandchildren. The desire which is stronger than any pain! Maybe it is okay to ignore or depreciate the lives of the elderly in your kin, but in my kin, we respect and help every family member who deserves it no matter the age!

@@dnago916 shit, my bad
@@TH-cam_handle_system_sucks Do you realize that trying to keep a 70 yr old man alive when 90% of their body is burnt, they only have skin on the heels, and are suffering extreme pain is worse than letting them die?
From experience, I believe burns hurt much much more than breaking a bone. I've broken plenty of bones in my life but I can never ever compare it to a burn and to be real, breaking bones sucks a lot but it's definitely much more manageable than caring for burns. Just my personal experience lol great job for the video! Definitely much more easier to understand than learning within classes. Cheers!
Apparently according to science burns on the human body are literally the worst pain rated. Forget jellyfish stingers and gunshot wounds or cuts to your nerve systems... Burns are the worst
I have to agree with that. When I burned my hand it was very painful. My broken bones didn't urt
The amount of nerves your burning off would hurt so bad
Burns have like a BITING pain to it. Maybe that's why they hurt for me more than broken bones too. I remember when I broke my wrist I was too in shock to feel much pain. Burns though oof those HURT
Hmm having done both, Id say the chronic prolonged burn pain is worse and harder than a bone break to resolve with medications. From my personal experience that is.
Brilliant presentation sir! Thanks A LOT! 🙌🏻😀
I was probably around 12 or 13 and was on holiday with my parents and a few family friends. We spent a whole day out on a boat on the sea and I forgot to reapply sun cream after getting out of the water. I had managed to get second degree burns all over my chest and first degree burns from my wrists all the way up to my shoulders. The blisters were the worst part by far. Since the blisters formed on my chest, every time I breathed I could feel the skin being pulled and it hurt so bad. Even worse, some of the blisters burst while I was asleep and I was at risk of an infection. Luckily they healed pretty quickly and left no scars. I’m 18 now and I cannot express enough how important it is to apply sun cream. It was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced
I've had a ton of injuries in my life, especially in my knees and ankles. Meniscus, torn ligaments, dislocated knee and even more but nothing compared to the pain when I scolded half my left arm with boiling hot water in an accident. The initial pain was actually quite bearable but it really started hitting me after a few hours and days, definitely the worst pain I experienced in my life. Got some scarring as well though it's barely noticable at a glance after a few years though you can see that the hair follicles look much thicker and pronounced at the top somehow.
Although it was very painful, seeing my body going through the healing process day after day was incredibly fascinating and ultimately sparked my interest in anatomy and medicine
The pain was likely from your nerves healing and growing back. Excruciating and they tend to be extra sensitive for a good while.
I'm sorry you went through that I'm glad your ok🙏💙
I agree, human body is incredible
I second degree burned my right foot with boiling hot water when I was a kid, dropped a pan of boiling water on my foot and it soaked my sock. Couldn’t quickly remove the sock because the skin had instantly melted and fused to it so I ripped it away along with some of the burning skin. Worst pain I’ve ever had for the following month. I had to walk with crutches because any pressure on my foot was unbearable
DONT PLAY WITH HOT WATER
this is an incredible channel, thanks for contributing to the public store of knowledge
great channel, love this level of divulgation :D
3:40 I want to thank the sponsor of todays video, the guy we took the leg from,
I spilled boiling hot tea on myself when I was 11 and got a second degree burn all over my stomach and right thigh. Easily the most painful experience of my life, though after several hours I began to lose feeling in those areas because it literally burned the pain receptors away. I also had literal bubbles in my skin and my own melted body fat in those bubbles, which the doctors later popped with tweezers. Surprisingly 6 years later, there is no scar.
the good thing about being young is that your body heals much more effectively than when you are older. i’d attribute youthfulness and good fortune to your lack of scarring. i unfortunately scar after almost any injury.
Now the question, do you drink tea?
Similar happened with me recently. It just stopped hurting after a bit because the nerves were gone, though it was really ugly to look at.
tea is capable of 2nd degree! thats mad
@@ModernHero7 sometimes but as I've gotten older coffee has become more my thing
This is so insightful. I'm 35 now. As a 19 yo, me and my friends enjoyed video-taping 'stunt's (the jackass hype), and one stunt was me pour lighter fluid on my pant leg and lighting it, doing a cartwheel and putting it out. I was wearing corduroy pants. First light up went out, second one didn't, and i had a belt on, so was burned for around 5-9 seconds. pretty bad 2nd degree burns, and one of blisters was the size of a softball. Understanding now how the skin/anatomy of the leg, it's absolutely incredible how the body can rebound back from such horrifying damage. Great vid! Thank you!
The worst burn I ever received was on the entirety of both palms after I caught a pan that was just out of the oven (I absent mindedly set it on the stove, and it flipped over I bumped it). My palms blistered and bled and honestly, its some of the worst pain ive ever been in. Constant waves of pain. I can't imagine what its like for people who have much more severe burns

My “burn” story comes from not a burn. Rather I caught my arm on a pipe clamp which tore away about an inch by half inch chunk of skin off . It was basically a third degree burn. I could see the fascia 😮😮😮 since it was at a job , they sent me to urgency care after . It really didn’t hurt, felt like a bruise when it happened but blood gushed down my arm … the spot where it happens hurts occasionally and if I bump it it hurts way worse , that injury happened years ago and the new skin that grew over looks weird and purple colored sometimes .
*after*?? holy shit dude your job shouldve called an ambulance for you! blood running everywhere is a terrible sight for any of a company's workers, and your job shouldve had some workers compensation money too
So it wasn’t a burn…
@@vikzn1607 well it worked as a very good demonstration lol
About two years ago I was helping one of the cooks at a place I used to work at clean the kitchen. I had already worked 13 hours that day and was just not thinking right. I went to go move this industrial grill and thought it had cooled off and I was so wrong. I had my had on for at max 2 seconds and I ended up with third degree burns. I have never been in such pain but now I am so so careful whenever i’m around appliances like that. Hand is healed with some scarring but i’m grateful it wasn’t severe enough for a skin graft
Love your video's and love curiosity, been subscribed a few years now.
My friend who I've known since I was 6 years old was in an apartment fire when he moved to a dorm at college. He woke up to his hair on fire, and jumped out the second story window to escape it, landing on his head and suffering a TBI. The dorm wasn't up to safety standards and most of the fire alarms didnt even go off. He had third degree burns over 70% of his body, and was in a coma at the hospital for about 7 months. He went through dozens and dozens of surgeries over the years, and even had to get a piece of his skull removed due to brain swelling.. but he survived. Now he and his family are advocates for fire safety. That man has been through more shit than anyone should ever have to go through, but I'm so infinitely happy that he pulled through. We live in different states now, but not long ago I got to see him in person for the first time in so many years!
Woah... Thank u for sharing. I hope he doing great!
Please tell me the college paid your friend in full for all of that wtf
My mother got second and third degree burns over 14% of her body. Mainly hands, neck and face (face was mainly first and minor second degree burns so there was no scarring) took her a long while, a few skin grafts and microneedling at the neck (for flexibility of the skin) for her to get better. Took over a year in total to heal fully.
Worst I got is a small (about the size of a penny) third degree burn just to the side of my shin. I fell asleep with my leg on a radiator. Only found out I had a burn the next evening when I knelt down and the surrounding blisters burst. There's no sensation on that part of my leg now, but it was so small I just covered it over with a burn dressing.
What a beautiful lesson! Thank you very very much! Easy and intense 13 min (not simple combo)
extremely informative, thanks doc
I touched the wall of my air fryer, which was around 400 degrees, for maybe 1/8th of a second over two months ago, I can still see the red spot
Heat and fire will consume you if not respected.
I haven't had a second degree burn in a long time and god help anyone with 3rd degree burns or anyone who has burned to death
Burning to death is rare , most people who die in house fires die from breathing in hot ( really toxic) gases, or asphyxia, co poisoning etc . Some sear their lungs which also sounds shitty , but it is rare to be burnt to death for most people
Same
I have learnt more from this channel than years of science lessons. You have got the knack of explaining things in a way that most people understand. Another great video
You are an energetic, excellent teacher.
skin burns within the blink of an eye. If you touch any metal that is hot enough to burn you, but not instantly you have a fraction of a second to react before you get a burn.
The byproduct of this is that you skip that wet and blistery phase as the wound cauterizes itself. This is just my experience from smaller burns I have got from working in a kitchen, and from burns that I have seen others get in kitchens.
This was perfect timing. I got a second degree burn only yesterday because I was moving a just-turned-off heat gun, and I dropped it and stupidly caught it. Of course I grabbed the metal part. Now I've got a couple blisters on 2 off my fingers. It hurt for a long time, throbbing as soon as I took the ice off of it. Now it's just annoying though. Should've just let the heat gun fall on the table...
Please don't put ice on burns as it could damage the nerves. Run under cool water for 10-15 minutes to wash away bacteria and then apply burn cream and a bandage. Go to the ER if it's severe and NEVER intentionally pop blisters.
@@LogicalDisaster Don't worry, I didn't put the ice directly on the burn. I had some layers of a clean towel in between. Mostly I was holding an iced coffee that I got on the drive home, then held some ice cubes wrapped in a wash cloth. Had the skin been broken that would have been another matter and I would have done all the things you suggested. Fortunately, the skin wasn't broken and now I'm just waiting for the blisters to do their thing and de-puff naturally. As an artist/cosplayer/clumsy person I have burned and/or cut myself a few times and understand the appropriate first aid.
@@creaturefeaturecosplay I'm glade and yes, I relate because I am all of the above as well lol. Maybe not good at it, but yeah.
For the price (since I'm apparently GIFTED at getting lit on fire/burned) I'm a STRONG believer in Aloe WITH LIDOCAINE... wonderful stuff, and they don't have a lot of excess work when you get to ER to match pain management, since they literally go through buckets of lidocaine anyways...
There's also Silvadene Cream, or Silver Sulphur Diazene (generically)... which is a WONDERFUL topical analgesic and has antiseptic qualities... BUT it's also expensive as hell... so it's understandable to be a bit restrictive about using it... At the same time, it's the kind of thing Vet's have been known to apply to horses without a lot of hell to play, so it's (bio-chemically) relatively tame and reliable.
AND of course, just thought I'd contribute as a fellow klutz... even if I'm "brainiac" enough to somehow get the idea to experiment in things like metal smithing and foundry work... among other high-temperature horse's assery...
Just last week, I was "Plastic Welding" some steel micro-mesh into a bottle lid for straining about a half-gallon at a time of just stuff out of random liquids... very useful tool around my house... AND I somehow absently managed to get a chunk of molten HDPE (roughly 300F) STUCK to my palm... SO that's only now starting to look like it's "healing nicely"...
AND just in case anyone has friends or family who ride motorcycles... Aloe with Lidocaine is a WONDERFUL treatment for "road rash"... just in case that might be helpful... ;o)
I did the same exact thing. Luckily I only burned 2 of my fingers, As I moved it I wasn’t paying attention and grabbed the metal part. Hopefully it heals well, My index finger doesn’t have a fingerprint anymore since it burned off.
Thanks to your videos I overcame my fear of injuries, year ago before I found the channel my head would spin just from a cut, but now I can even stomach watching surgery videos.
That was really interesting! Thank you
Shockingly, this is the first time I'm hearing and learning about 4th degree burns. I thank you for that.
I'd like to see a more in-depth video on sunburns and other ways sun exposure can alter your skin. It'd be nice to have an explanation for why after my burn shifted to a tan there were several dark brown lines where I absentmindedly scratched the area.
I would guess that is hyperpigmentation caused by the scratches. It will fade
@@okthen2720 Sure, but it would be interesting to understand the nitty gritty if hyperpigmentation and what makes some people more prone to experience than others.
@@elisam.r.9960 I agree!
Sounds like a great topic.
As a 40 year old ginger that has just burned herself to crisp in early May I appreciate this video a lot. I guess I'll never learn...
I get that
Gee I feel bad for you, it must be hard being ginger...
I remember when I had a ginger friend, everytime we played games together outside he would always end with with x-degree burns
I recently recovered from a second degree burn on my right cheek due to hot water. I have rather large pores on my cheeks from acne in my youth and on the area where the burn was there are just gone. The healing was so weird, not only that I couldn't put on make up for a week but the blisters popped on their own leaving minimal scaring and discoloration. The tension and flaking was intense and even tho it hurt like crazy I was glad I was still feeling pain,meaning no nerves were harmed.
What I've always wondered: If you get a skin graft from a different area of your body why does that area not show similar problems without dermis as the burned area would do? How does the grafted-from-area gets treated afterwards?
Curious too
The epidermis is elastic. So they basically pull on it (Don't know exactly but maybe from the thigh or sometimes the belly) , cut only the epidermis, and sew it back like nothing happened, dermis still covered. But I'm no doctor and would like some insight on this too.
I think they insert a balloon type thing under the skin to slowly let it stretch/grow out. At least that’s what I understand they do for other things like separating conjoined twins. It’s probably something like that.
I had second degree burns on my back shoulders and neck during summer. This was due to not wearing sunblock after 8 hours in direct sunlight at the pool. I was red all over and extremely painful. After a day small blisters started showing up all over my shoulders and back. It took atleast a month to fully heal up and I'll tell you it was genuinely the most painful thing I had to experience. I was constantly wrapped up in bandages and constantly had to reapply aloe. Getting dressed was difficult too.
I had 2nd degree burns on the inside of my wrist due to an accident spilling boiling turkey juices (Christmas dinner prep) as the darn thing was heavy. I had the biggest, lumpiest blister I had ever seen and it was sore as all hell (it was rubbing on my sleeve mostly). I drew a line around the reddened area to keep an eye on it.
I went to the supermarket pharmacy (GPs are closed until after new year) and asked about help to at least protect it.
He asked about who drawn the line (after looking somewhat horrified and asking why I never went to A&E) and I said to keep an eye on it incase of infection making the redness larger he seemed mildly surprised I knew this. He showed me the stuff needed to keep it protected and clean and I bought it and did it there and then before leaving.
TL;DR
I scalded myself, got a huge blister and surprised a pharmacist.
I got better.
I enjoyed today's video :D
Great video ! I love to learn !
RE: Electrical burns- there's three type of electric burn;
Direct burns from electricity flowing through the body
Arc burns - physical contact with an electrical arc. This can vaporize your skin. (It took the tip off my middle finger, a second one made a hole in my index finger)
and
Flash burns (same as radiation burns) and 'ark eye', the UV from electrical arcing burns the skin and eyes. The second is welding (or watching someone weld) without the right eye protection. It feels like theres constantly sand in your eye from the UV 'pitting' the surface of your eyeball.
Worth a mention here somewhere... NEVER EVER TRUST the mask that comes in the box with a new welder. Companies just pack something "relatively dark and CHEAP" for those beginner's kits to "get you started".
AND Harbor Freight will sell a cracklebox Mig for about 100 bucks to anyone thinking of taking up the craft... GO LOOK UP the spec's for a proper mask and lens, and shop for the gear PROPERLY...
It's the same philosophy about gear on a motorcycle. "Bad gear is WORSE than no gear at all. You take the confidence that you're working with good gear since you spent money and have "safety kit"... BUT you're not protected... If you went NAKED, you'd probably at least ride (or do work) like you were naked, and take fewer chances." ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464 Yep, and you only get one set of eyes.
How much would you pay to keep your vision? It's usually a damn sight more than a welding mask.
@@phoephoe795 Me personally???
Well, I weigh things out the way I look at "gear" for riding a motorcycle... SO let's get to that sort of philosophy... because each one of us SHOULD assess our risks as an individual... yeah??
Okay... TOP priority is assessing things relative to the cost of "repair" versus "prevention"... AND repair involves surgeries, physical therapy, experts, consultations, etc... so tens of thousands of dollars for a motorcycle fail... potentially (at least)... if I survive it... AND of course, it's not all together different with welding... Laser surgery versus the physically invasive stuff for other situations... but the philosophy is similar...
I'd just rather sweat than bleed... Call this the convenience check... BUT i would rather bundle up with an extra layer or two of leather than be torn to pieces n the side of the road, waiting until someone showed up to help...
AND finally, the imminent "How to show someone that you care"...
Buying gear and KNOWING i's going to play out as it is, can help dividejnds... But it's worth doing... and this is relativ to the person in question, but the principle stands..
Do as you're gonna do,. ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464 May I ask how old you are?
@@theunheardprophet4315 45 ... AND still unafraid to get out for an adventure, whether it's picking up a new skill at something I've never tried before... OR just hitting the road on the bike to go check out something for myself...
A lot of miles in those years, and they were the "old fashioned country miles" if that makes sense. ;o)
So I was dumb in college and once slept curled around my laptop after working on a long editing project. I had blister burns and because I had no idea how to treat them I have a couple of scars on my elbow forearm. The burns I remember were more sore than anything, and it was super gross when it all leaked out and ugh. Human body is gross but fascinating. It's actually interesting, I wondered why for a long time why the skin didn't heal over, why those two circles just stuck there, there's no freckles, or hair or anything. But considering they're scars makes sense. But I still wonder why things don't grow back over scar tissue. Is that area just so damaged the skin can grow over and heal?
I remember I got a first degree burn on my thumb and it hurt like hell so I can’t imagine how painful anything higher up must be.
Thank you! It was very interesting
I’ve only had a first degree burn from an oven but couldn’t stand the pain without cool water on it. I had to keep changing out cool washcloths for about 12 hours. Two years later and no scar. This seemed so minor and I often think about people who have serious burns. The pain would literally be unbearable because it doesn’t stop and actually hurts more and more. I know I’d rather die.
same. Got a tiny first degree recently from brushing against a hot pan and it hurt so bad for so long for something so tiny. I got a tiny second degree burn almost 10 years ago (arm touched the top of the oven as I was taking something out) and I still have the shadow of a scar from it. I can't imagine dealing with that level of pain over a wide-spread area.
I have had a couple of 2nd degree hot glue gun and soldering iron burns. Ive definitely found out the hard way of running a burn under cold water immediately and to not ice it. I iced my first hot glue burn, and ended up making it worse by getting frostbite on top of a burn. I've also found that the sooner you run water over it, the less damage it does.
Same. Thinking about it even hurts me I hope I never feel anything worse than a first degree burn I’d rather just die
Half of my stomach was burned with 2nd degree because of hot water incident and the pain lasts for hours. Still lasts until days maybe weeks and blisters do come out and wearing clothes is a pain
Same. Got a first degree burn on my arm touching the inside of a hot oven rack and literally had a dark line in the shape of that rack as it healed.
I've never had anything worse than a first degree burn, but I've seen some pretty nasty second degree burns, not to mention dramatizations of worse burns that left me with nightmares for months. Normally, I can't handle this kind of thing. Burns both terrify and fascinate me, and because of my curiosity, I often dig too deep and end up disturbing myself again. I was hesitant to watch this because of everything I've seen in the past, but this turned out to be highly informational and satisfied my curiosity, and didn't trigger anything. It even aided in lessening my fears a little. Thank you so much for this video, it was very well made.
Very educational video! Always impressed by your content :)
I am also excited for Curiosity Stream! I wasn't gonna buy it until you presented this code for 25% and I'm glad I tried it. Best streaming service I've tried so far that has good quality, educational documentaries on par with Discovery Channel.
I suffered seocnd and third degree burns over my entire right hand during a grease fire cooking accident. Most painful thing I've ever experienced in my life. Even while jacked up on morphine and hydromorphone it still hurt extremely bad. please be safe when interacting with hot stuff, especially hot liquids.
Liquids and especially oils are the worst, oils will stick to you and continue to burn even if you try to wash them off
"Forever burn: A burn so deep it goes to the bone." Learned that from a glassblowing show. I used your code and finally signed up for curiosity stream. It beat all the other platforms and I pretty much only watch documentaries or horror movies anyway, lol.
Thank you guys for making this, this is such a cool video. When I was 13 I had a pretty sunburn, the skin turned purple, then it peeled. Well, then that brand new skin burned so bad that it looked boiled and it bubbled up about an inch above the skin and now 20 years later that skin gets very discolored if it gets any sun. Safe to say I stay out of the sun and use sunscreen or cover up everytime I go outside. In college I found out that a weird bruising on my legs that I had while pregnant was actually a severe and infected sunburn. Who know 🤷 My doctor at the time patted me on the head and said, "Huh.... It's fine. ☺" Thankfully it healed with time and no apparent long term effects. Now I just drench any sunburns in aloe to prevent damage from getting too bad. Understanding what actually happened is so cool!!
Try CBD cream.
It’s messed up how many people today (mostly the 65+) think that a deep suntan is healthy & good for you! 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🥺🙄🙄
Sunburns are extremely dangerous!!! Too much WILL give you cancer!!! Stay OUT of the sun people! Yes, even light skin black people still need to be careful! ✌️
@@bmell1252 Definitely!

Is it possible to ask about calluses? I've found them fascinating, as I've gotten calluses in various areas- though mostly my hands- for a variety of repeated exercises/activities, and lost them as I've stopped those exercises/activities. I'd love to see the process as explained by professionals.
I think calluses are just a thicker epidermis in response to repeated action
@@angelmonroy3012 Yeah, you're most likely right. But I would still love to understand the process more thoroughly.
I get them as a rower and I’d also love this explained.
Surely drummers and guitarists are no strangers to this lol
@@angelmonroy3012 Yeah as someone who frequently played guitar years ago, calluses build up quickly especially when you haven't played again for a long time.

I'm not exactly sure how hot the exhaust pipe on an LPG forklift gets, but the faint scaring on my arms from burning myself on one a few years back is a fair reminder to be careful when replacing the cylinder.
I am a programmer considering to get a second degree in medicine and you are the kind of people who push me towards it. Granted, I want a degree in neurology but this still counts
0:34 No I'm not gonna worry about the sock on the foot, I'm gonna worry about where you got a whole human leg from.

My grandfather got a 4th degree burn on his hands, because of friction. He was trimming a tree branch (super tall) and he was using a makeshift pully system and something came crashing down and the rope cut through his hands clear to the bone. 5 years later, he can still use his hands for woodworking. Doctors were so surprised he was able to move his fingers at all!
Just found this channel a video ago. Immediate subscribe!
Can you please post something on multiple sclerosis so I can explain to my son what his mom has in a way he will understand..you guys explain stuff the best! If not its cool but keep doing what youre doing you guys still rock!
As a writer/artist, one of my characters is a burn victim so this was really informative!
I got a second degree on my hand/wrist after a car crash, and that stuff hurts! When that adrenaline wore I off, I was not having it. Luckily my mom and I took care of it if enough that it is mostly okay now, barely visible if you don’t look hard at me. Though whenever my skin is cold or warm (either extreme) it changes color which is kinda cool. It was super visible in my Senior pictures, which I find really funny for some reason. Cool video!
As a chef I keep getting some second degree burns every few months. They really stay as a mark on your forearm so you can easily recognise a cook/chef in the wild if their forearm is visible.
love the content, very informative ❤
I was hoping you’d talk about what a major complication of 3rd and 4th degree burns is besides infection risk: transdermal fluid loss. Great video and I was wondering about the sock 😂 I will continue to say that whoever is prosecting/dissecting the cadavers does an amazing job. It’s way harder to do neatly than it looks
I find this channel really unsettling and very interesting, very addictive in my opinion 😅😁
This channel fascinates and terrifies me in equal measure, but I just can't look away haha.
Love your work as always! It would be awesome to see different skin tones represented especially when we are talking about skin.
i’m so interested in living things, i’m only 14 and i watch every single video of yours because it’s just so interesting!
when i grow up i’m deciding to become a biologist.
It’s weird getting this video in suggestions as I’ve got a 2nd degree burn today. 👍🏼
I was waiting to hear you mention gamma rays, but never expected the Hulk addition.
Mentioning burns, I'd love to see a video on what Sherpas' bodies go through and how they have adapted to freezing temperatures and high altitude in the Himalayas (except for more forgot which blood cells, and greater lung capacity)
Knowledgeable as always ☺️ Thanks IHA team
I've found with small burns that over cooling them when you get them makes the area way more sensitive to heat while healing.
In 2008 my son was in a house fire and burned 65% of his body and in a coma for 2 months. He saved his grandma but lost his dog. Grandma passed 1 week after the fire. I can still smell his burnt hair because that was the only place I could kiss him before they put in coma. He many skin grafts and they even used pig skin between surgeries. He couldn't deal with the physical and mental pain and sought out relief. November 11,2015 he passed from heroin laced with fentanyl.
whomp whomp lil bro
I had a steam burn last year from lifting a pot lid and my burn progressed so fast the doctors really thought I'd need a skin graph. Thankfully no need and it healed very well. I had no idea steam was so dangerous 😳 😅
Steam is pretty scary stuff, it gets even more risky with high volume and pressure situations (think industrial settings, engine rooms of large ships, etc). Could vary from exploding boilers to "just" a leaking steam pipe. My brother got some pretty bad steam/very hot water burns around his ankle a few years ago during an accident while cleaning that had to be repaired with a graft. It was a long healing process and very sensitive for a long time, took quite a while too before he was allowed to do some work and even longer to do everything again.
Never really thought about it, but damn the engine room of a navy ship in active conflict seems like a scary place to be. Sure it's typically behind the more armoured parts of the hull but any damage there is going to get ugly quickly for the crew inside.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.
I'm working on an elaborate novel and one of the main plot points revolves around the main character suffering terrible burns from a nearby explosion. I'm trying to get the imagery accurate and portray the subsequent treatment (and complications) correctly.
The sight leaves the King in complete shock. "Wait, detonation? How is she alive?"
The Goddess glances toward the disfigured princess, "I do not know."
Great information 😇
this is thhe type of stuff id watch at 3 am
Please do a follow-up about electricity damages. DC vs AC, voltages, in case of AC the frequency. It is very complex and certainly deserves its own video. So people know what, how and why happens and mostly why sometimes an amputation is the only way to save the life of somebody, even though at first glance he does not have that heavy burns on the outside.
At work almost exactly a year ago I was filtering a fryer. I was rushing because I had the rest of the day off! The hose was pouring oil and fell out of the fryer and started pouring on me. Burned a huge part of my side, both my inner thighs, and the oil got stuck in my sock so both feet. Mostly 2nd but a lot of 3rd degree burns. Where the 3rd degree ones were I have some keloid scaring. I’m happy it wasn’t worse!
Super informative.
I love this channel because they just pull out human limbs like it ain’t nothing 😂
