Question

What do you mean by scald? how can we prevent it?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Scalds can be accidental or not, but many can be prevented. They’re often caused by minor accidents when you are in a hurry or under pressure. For example: You can scald yourself by spilling a hot beverage or soup on your skin.

Steam from the oven or microwave can also burn you if you are too close.

Tap water burns are more likely if your water heater is set above 120°F.

Scald burns are especially common in the restaurant industry. In a restaurant kitchen, water temperature has to be kept high to prevent bacterial overgrowth and to properly clean cookware.
