i have no way of blindly determining if your burn is now infected so if this is your concern you will need to see a medical provider for a hands-on assessment. there is nothing wrong with continuing the sulfa cream for a while longer since this is an antibiotic and you can use the aloe later if you want. the pink underneath is typically normal and does not necessarily mean their is a secondary infection.
i accidentally scraped off my dead skin on a burn and pink flesh was undereath. how should i take care of that area now? . i have a second degree burn on my thigh and the doctor told me to put sulfadiazine on it twice a day. two days later i woke up and accidentally scraped off a huge piece of dead skin and raw pink flesh was underneath. i continued to put on the sulfa. for a day but pus starting coming out and now the area is even more red. i woke up this morning and there was a tiny spot of white on it too. how should i sea with this area? can i use aloe? is the more reddening means that its an infection?
