[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll tack on an additional psa. See a dermatologist ASAP for a burn on the face. ER docs are not the most knowledgeable about potential for scarring.[/quote] Op here. Thanks for this idea. I thought ER was overkill and waste of money (actually once my baby was bouncing in her chair and happily eating dinner I wasn’t even going to call ped) but once it started blistering I said to the woman at the next table (the one who’d given me the pediatric neosporin) “Mom to Mom do you think I should call her doctor?” She looked and saw it was blistering and said something like “yes! That looks serious!” So I packed up the food and my kids and walked home (to get car and because DH wasn’t picking up the phone) and called my ped on the walk home. The advice nurse said ER. I asked about urgent care and she said something like “for burns, especially on the face, I strongly urge you to go to the ER. Which one will you be using so I can note it in her chart?” So, by the time we walked home I’d been told I should really go to the ER. The irony is the baby has a cold and has had a hard time sleeping but last night she slept through the night without complaint. [/quote] Are you sure the blisters were from pizza and not an allergic reaction to neosporin (this is what happened to me as a kid)? [/quote]
