I burned my self with hot water after accidentally opening my coffee maker lid a few days ago. The scolding hot water spit out, hit the top half of my breast and left a quarter size scar. Here's my issue... The skin tissue was burned through. It's white, not deep, not puffy or filled with puss like other burns. It's sore, but it doesn't hurt much like other burns. I covered it with gauze and a triple antibiotic cream as well as a burn cream I found in my first aid kit. I'm concerned it will scar. The border skin was blistered a bit--but it's healing nicely. The white part however is still damp to the touch. It's not infected, but it hasn't scabbed over yet. What should I do? Wait a few more days, or head to the doctor?
