Cigarette burn

Posted , 2 users are following.

My friend thought it would be funny to burn my hand with a cigarette very close to my wrist. I need to figure out if this will leave a permanent scar and what degree this burn is. Pictures attached below.imageimage

    You have a crazy "friend". And not funny. Yes you may have a permanent mark but it will gradually fade. Keep it clean. If the area around it goes pink/red and starts to spread or throb, see your doctor immediately. Dont pick at it while its healing.
