Detailed explanation-1: -First-degree burns affect only the outer layer of skin, the epidermis. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and has no blisters. Mild sunburn is an example.
Detailed explanation-2: -First-degree burns are very common and frequently occur after one accidentally touches a hot stove, curling iron, or hair straightener. Sunburn can also be a first-degree burn. Unlike second-or third-degree burns, which are more severe, first-degree burns only involve the top layer of the skin.
Detailed explanation-3: -A classic example of a first-degree burn is moderate sunburn. The damage in a second-degree burn extends through the entire epidermis and part of the dermis. These injuries are characterized by redness and blisters.
Detailed explanation-4: -Briefly touching a hot pot, for example, would give you a first degree burn. Second degree burns do require medical attention, especially if they cover a large area. Being burned by very hot coffee is an example of second degree burns.
