Burns on My Daughter

Burn marks on her face

Location of the injury

Cheek/face

What kind of injury is it

Burn marks on her lower cheek and next to her chin.

What happened

My child was outside with her grandparents and she tripped and hit something hot. Not sure if it was the fire pit or the lid. It didn't look that bad. I applied a cool rag when I saw it and applied some aloe.

What I'd Do Differently

  • I would have drove the distance to take her to the doctor.
