4 Reasons Why Ask DoctorBase™ is the Most Efficient Way to SEO and Establish Your Brand Online

  1. Ask DoctorBase™ is a free service for patients on the DoctorBase platform - currently servicing over 6 million American patients of record.
  2. All answers submitted by healthcare professionals (you) are for entertainment purposes only and do not constitute doctor-patient relationships. All patients must agree to this before using Ask DoctorBase™.
  3. Our software and our Marketing Engineering staff review each answer and optimize your answers for keywords valuable to your specialty. It is a well kept secret that doctors (you) - not SEO consultants - are the ones who have the most valuable content prized by search engines. Ask DoctorBase™ "unlocks and optimizes" your content in the most efficient manner possible with today's technology.
  4. Finally, the doctor who provides the most popular answer - "the Featured Answer," gets an added benefit by allowing patients to write rave reviews about your expertise - reviews that are submitted to both Google and Google Local through our Preferred Data Provider relationship.

Ask Dr. Molly if you have questions or want a personal session on how to best use Ask DoctorBase™ for maximum marketing impact.

You need evaluation for the second degree burns. If you notice any pus coming out of your wounds then you definitely need further evaluation. You didn't mention what you have done so far to treat the burns. Have you used any Silvadene cream so far. Seek some treatment soon.

Most first degree burns can be taken care of at home, However, I would have all 2nd and 3rd degree burns evaluated by a physician.You should not self diagnosis your burns. You are young and need to consider possible scarring, Seek professional advice.

What kind of burns are they?. Thermal, chemical or electrical? Majority tend to be thermal injury such as hot water/oil. Most burns can be treated with daily dressing change and application of silvadene or bacitracin ointment to prevent infection. In addition, any burns on vital areas such as hands or feet should be evaluated at least by a primary care physician if not at a burn center. Most second degrees burns, especially if they are more superficial will heal without incident. Deeper second degree and certainly third degree burns can heal with scarring. Finally make sure your tetanus vaccination is up to date.
