Burns are serious injuries and can be extremely painful, whether the incident involves anything from a small scalding water burn, to a chemical burn from substances like car battery acid. The aftermath of a burn can include nerve and muscle damage that may require physical therapy, as well as permanent scarring that not only may require cosmetic surgery, but that can cause a person to endure a lifetime struggle with self-confidence.
