Second-degree burn is the type of burn represented by the formation of the blisters.

Second-degree burn is a burn that affects the epidermis and the superficial part of the dermis layer (skin). Second-degree burn may be caused by sunburn, chemicals, scald injuries, flames or electricity. The burn site may appear blistered, red, wet and shiny, and may be swollen and painful.
