Toddler has a open burn then played in soil today - freaking out
So the reason I'm messaging here and now at a doctor's is because, look, it's been 3-4 days since the initial burn.
Day 2, a blister formed, and he promptly burst it from playing.
Every bandage I put he either rips or sucks on wet.
Then I wrap a bandage and he quickly pulls it off.
I so far have done a decent job keeping it clean.
He has ripped the scar yesterday once but has not done that today as I am more proactive re applying a bandage.
The burn is just on the inner finger. Its not huge but big to notice.
He got burned on my iron and I feel horrible.
So, my little guy is 2 next month and he has no tdap shot at all.
I thought nothing of it then I realized he played in dirt with an open wound thats partically healing but still red.
Im freaking out. I worry enough for him and I just want to know if anyone has gone through that and made it out.
Im not anti v. I wanted to give it to him but my husband wants to delay it and delay it. Is this an emergency or am I over reacting?
