An open way to treat burns
Ya. L. Povolotskaya (Tr. I S'ezda Khir. Lev. Ukr., 1925) ardently speaks out in favor of such a method, which presents a number of advantages over the use of the bandage. The surrounding burned area and the burned surfaces themselves are washed several times with alcohol, the bubbles are opened at the base, the hanging scraps of burned tissue are cut off, the undamaged tissue around the burn bridge is smeared with some indifferent ointment, for example. Vaseline, in case of need, the wound is protected from dust, flies, etc. - and this is the end of it. In the future, all care consists in daily cleansing of the healthy skin surrounding the burn with alcohol and lubrication with an indifferent ointment, while the doctor does not touch the wound itself.
