Information on the Different Types of Burn Injuries
Burn injuries can result in a lifetime of physical and emotional pain, so it’s crucial to know how to proceed after this type of accident. Burns are catastrophic injuries that can completely alter the course of someone’s life. According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, burns and fires are the fifth most common cause of accidental death in children and adults each year. This accounts for an estimated 3,500 adult and child deaths per year. Burns are serious injuries that should not be overlooked, whether you were wounded in a house fire, work accident, construction incident, explosion, or car accident.
