Hi,
It is definite, at the moment I am really unable to think straight. I don't have a minute peace from feeling doomed somehow.
I burned myself 2 days ago on an iron, on my leg. You would wonder how did i manage that... I left the iron to cool down and then i forget and kneel down to get something, i am beating myself about how stupid i was giving myself something too be scared about like i don't have enough already.
At first it looked like almost nothing, like a bit of peeled skin, just like when your skin is peeling, but nothing else, and it didn't hurt much, just a bit. It's not numb either cause that would be even worse then pain. But over the course of the day i even forgot about it. Then when I was showering and felt it burn in that area and when i looked down i remembered and saw a red line where iron has touched the skin with a scab in the middle area, probably where the impact was worst. I am now panicking about it, worrying it will get infected with all sorts of dangerous bacteria like Clostridium or MRSS... I hate myself for thinking this way but I just can't help it. I am not sure if I should do something. I can't possibly go to the doctor for this, I thought about calling 111 just for advice but I really feel stupid even thinking that, although the other part of me just wants to know it looks normal and that it's not infected. Any suggestions?
Thanks!!!!
