Burns refer to the tissue damage caused by heat, overexposure to sunlight, and radiation, as well as due to chemical or electrical contact. Burns can cause minor medical issues as well as life-threatening emergencies. The treatment of burns is determined by the location and severity of the injury. Sunburns and minor scalds are usually treatable at home. However, deep or extensive burns necessitate immediate medical attention. Some patients require treatment at specialized burn centers as well as months of follow-up care. Burns are classified into three types based on severity - first degree, second degree, and third degree burns.
Burn ointment is a topical medication that is applied to the burnt area of the body. Antibiotic ointments and creams are used to help in the prevention of infections. Applying an antibacterial ointment, such as Bacitracin or Neosporin, as well as covering the burn with cling film or a sterile, non-fluffy dressing or cloth, aids in the healing of first or second degree burn wounds. In patients with second- and third-degree burns, ointments including silver sulfadiazine cream is used to prevent and treat wound infections.
Increasing awareness programs by non-profit organizations to spread awareness about burns are expected to drive the growth of the global burn ointment market over the forecast period.
