Introduction
Electric burns are a result of an electric shock, where electricity courses through the body and can potentially harm internal tissues and vital organs. The damage can range from mild to severe and, in some cases, even lead to fatal consequences.
There are two primary types of electric burns:
- Electric Flame Burn: This is generally less severe and often involves clothing catching fire. Treatment typically includes regular dressings, limb elevation, and antibiotic therapy.
- Electric Burn Due to Current Passage: These burns are more dangerous and require careful attention from both attendants and medical professionals.
