I was burnt on my shoulder because of a metal that was very hot, it isn't very big, according to doctors here it is 3% burn. The burnt skin turned black as it dried up and then there was development of pus under it. I am advised to take advent tablet, chymoral forte and pantosec. I am also applying a ointment called silverex heal, however it has peeled off, there is some pus in it still. It still hurts. I don't know what to do with the wound. I was told to keep it open and just put the ointment, but I think I require gauze application. I don't know what to do about the infection. I am scared about it. What should I do?
