Pain relieving ointments

The use of pain relievers depends on the level of severity and its source. You need to understand that in the first three degrees of damage, the pain especially torments the victim. Superficial burns provoke irritation of nerve endings, thereby causing physical pain. The following ointments are used to relieve it:

First aid supplies

It is important to know two rules that can be considered basic. This is mandatory refrigeration and a ban on oil-containing substances. Use only ice wrapped in a sterile cloth and cold water. Thermal burns without open wounds can be treated with antiseptics.

If the damage is superficial, Panthenol is used. Can quickly relieve inflammation and pain. It is applied very thinly. There are no contraindications. At an early stage of damage, other means are used:

The effectiveness of treatment depends on the severity of tissue damage.

Drugs in the regeneration phase

In the case of a normal recovery process, granulation of the wound begins after seven days. The damaged area is filled with new maturing connective tissue, blood vessels and epithelial cells. During this period, the use of ointments with a high fat content is not recommended. For tissue healing at this stage, creams containing silver are needed. There are strict restrictions on the use of these drugs. Therapy should not be carried out longer than two weeks.

In this case, changes in the properties of the skin affect the dysfunction of external respiration and the associated circulatory system. The goal of rehabilitation is to restore these adaptation functions.

Medicines for accelerated healing

A number of requirements are imposed on medications intended to accelerate the healing of burn surfaces. When choosing a medication you need focus on the phase features of the wound process:

1. inflammatory a process involving melting of the necrotic mass and removal of decay products;
2. regenerating a process with proliferation and formation of young, vascular-rich granulation tissues;
3. epithelial process, with the formation of scars and final healing of the wound surface.

Thus, the rehabilitation period takes place in three stages:

1. relieving inflammation,
2. exfoliation of dead skin cells,
3. hydration,
4. protection of restored skin.

Causes of dry and tight skin after a burn

The skin at the burn site, although restored, cannot be called complete. Due to the loss of its functions, the damaged the skin loses its ability to carry out metabolic processes, because of which it becomes dry and thin, easily injured, constantly peeling and itching.

After removing inflammation and exfoliating dead skin particles (post-burn crust), moisturizing the skin becomes an important step. For this purpose, absolutely any fortified moisturizing compound, with the exception of petroleum-based creams.

How does burn cream work?

Dermatologists claim that it is possible to achieve significant improvements in restoring the epidermis after burns, acne and pigmentation and subsequent skin regeneration using not only medications that fight the original sources of the problem, but also treating the skin with regenerating creams that accelerate the recovery process.

High-quality products from this pharmaceutical group activate the production of new cells, as a result of which the healing process is accelerated and tissues are rejuvenated.

For burn cream to work properly, it must contain vitamins that stimulate tissue renewal:

1. Vitamin A (also known throughout the world as retinol);
2. Vitamin E (tocopherol);
3. B vitamins;
4. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid).

Why does regeneration slow down?

Regeneration is a natural process during which old cells are replaced by new ones. The basis for the formation of new tissues are vitamins and various microelements supplied to the body with food. However, with age or due to other reasons, these processes slow down, so dermatologists advise stimulating them with the help of ointments.

Reasons for slowing down the regeneration process:

1. Weakening of protective properties. If a person is often sick, his immunity decreases, and many metabolic processes are inhibited;
2. Excessive passion for sports. Increased physical activity takes a lot of strength and energy from a person; if the losses are not replenished, exhaustion occurs;
3. Frequent stress and nervous experiences;
4. Poor nutrition. If the diet is based on unhealthy foods that are oversaturated with carcinogens, the body will not receive vitamins and minerals;
5. Dermatitis and infectious skin diseases.
6. Age-related changes

5 tips for natural skin regeneration

1. The key to glowing skin, no matter your age, is staying hydrated. When the dermis lacks water, the skin's barrier function is impaired and epidermal renewal is compromised. The result is a lack of elasticity, dull skin, a feeling of discomfort and the appearance of fine wrinkles.
   In order to satisfy the body's needs for water, you need to drink at least 1.5 liters. water both in winter and summer, not forgetting to apply moisturizer. Result: the skin becomes elastic and smooth, fine wrinkles disappear.
   Attention! Even oily skin can be dehydrated!

The scrub cleanses the skin of dead cells and impurities on its surface, preventing the premature formation of wrinkles, and also, thanks to the micro-grains in it, accelerates the microcirculation of blood cells and subsequent regeneration.

To increase cell regeneration, skin nutrition is necessary, and there is no better source for this than applying a good nourishing mask after peeling.

Our skin acts as a protection against pollution and sun damage during the day, but after sunset it activates cellular regeneration. As a result of many studies, it was noticed that the peak of regeneration of our skin is 1 am, at this time cell renewal is three times more intense compared to 1 pm. Therefore, healthy sleep has a beneficial effect on our face.
