Skin is composed of two layers, epidermis and dermis and the degree of burn is determined by the damaged caused in these layers. The burns are classified into three degrees, <u>first degree burn, second degree burn and third degree burn</u> according to the tissue involvement.

Further Explanation:

Burns are categorized into different groups <u>based on how deeply the skin has been damaged</u>. The cause of burn can be friction burn, cold burn, thermal burn and radiation burn.

The burns are classified into three degrees which are,

1. First degree burn – First degree burns are mostly caused by sun radiations which <u>involve the epidermal layer of the skin</u>. They are marked with slight edema, pain and redness. They take few days to heal and sometimes leaves scar.

2. Second degree burn – The other name of second degree burn is partial thickness burn because of the <u>involvement of the epidermis and a small part of dermis</u>. This may cause red, tan or white skin, blisters and are painful. The healing may take few weeks to months and sometimes leave scars.

3. Third degree burns – It is commonly called full thickness burn because the <u>complete destruction of epidermis and dermis is observed</u>. In severe cases deeper tissues are also involved. Since dermis is completely damaged so the regeneration process of skin starts from the edge of the skin.
