How does silver sulfadiazine treat a burn with pus? (photo)

Doctor's Answer

Hi,

Silver sulfadiazine has antiseptic properties and will help prevent and treat burn wound infection allowing the wound to heal faster.

It should be combined with gentle wound cleansing and the use of a non-stick wound dressing such as melolin for best results.

Hope this helps!
