The six most common types of burn injuries include:
What are the 4 Types of Burns?
-
First degree burn: First degree burns affect the outermost layer of skin, which is called
the epidermis. First degree burns are painful, red, and dry with no blisters
formed. A mild sunburn is an example of a first degree burn. These are
also known as "superficial" burns.
-
Second degree burn: Second degree burns involve the lower layer of the skin, which is called
the dermis. These are also known as "partial thickness" burns.
-
Third degree burn: Third degree burns affect both the dermis and the epidermis. These burns
may even go all the way to the subcutaneous tissue. Third degree burns
look blackened and are also known as "full thickness" burns.
-
Fourth degree burn: Fourth-degree burns go through both of the layers of skin as well as
the deeper and underlying tissue. These burns may even affect muscle and
bone. The nerve endings with these types of burns have been destroyed,
which leaves no feeling in the affected area.
