[homeremedy]

i am treating a second degree burn at home after seeing the dr. i am currently applying ointment and bandages to my calf. when i walk on the leg i get minimal pain. when i stand and do not move the leg, it feels like it is burning. when does that discomfort go away? the burn is approx two weeks old and is healing well otherwise. thanks for your help.
