2 year old son burned his hand- HELP?!?!
Question: 2 year old son burned his hand- HELP.?!.?
My two year old grabbed the iron, and burned his hand. As soon as it happened, I ran his hand under cool/warm water, and now he seems fine. He says it hurts, but there's no blisters and it's barely red. But, when I read about burns, it says if it's on the hands, take him to the doctor.? So, should I make the trip.?
