Can Baoshutang BAO FU LING be used for a scald without peeling skin?

When the skin is red and mildly swollen from a burn, but no blisters have formed, you may consider using Baoshutang Compound Camphor Cream (formerly known as: BAO FU LING) after rinsing the burned area with cold water.



If blisters of varying sizes appear on the burned area, avoid poking them to prevent infection. Small blisters usually absorb on their own and require no special treatment. However, if larger blisters appear, it is advisable to seek medical help and have them treated by a medical professional.

In the case of larger burns and more serious symptoms such as skin breakdown or discoloration and blackening, medical attention should be sought immediately and should not be self-treated or delayed, as these symptoms may indicate a deeper degree of burn that requires professional medical intervention.


In conclusion, for mild burns, Baoshutang Compound Camphor Cream (formerly known as:BAO FU LING) can be used as an adjunctive treatment, but the key is to keep the wound clean and observe it closely for changes. In the case of more serious burns, professional medical advice and treatment should be prioritized, and safety is always the primary consideration when dealing with burns.
