What is the meaning of "scalds" in Telugu, and how can it be treated naturally? - #12301

I recently came across the term "scalds", but I’m not entirely sure about its meaning and how it differs from other types of burns. I understand that scalds usually refer to burn injuries caused by hot liquids or steam, but I want to know what the term means in Telugu and how it is treated, especially with natural remedies. In Telugu, I have heard that scalds are referred to as "ఉష్ణ కాలుష్యం" (Ushna Kalushyam), which translates to thermal burns caused by contact with hot liquids. What are the key differences between scalds and other types of burns (like thermal burns from fire or electrical burns)? How can I differentiate between a scald and a more serious burn injury? When it comes to treating scalds naturally, I’ve heard that cool water is one of the first steps. How effective is running cool water over the affected area right after the burn, and how long should this be done for best relief? Should ice be applied, or is it better to avoid ice and just use cool water to prevent further damage to the skin? Another natural remedy I read about is the use of Aloe Vera. Since Aloe Vera is known for its cooling and healing properties, can applying fresh Aloe Vera gel to scalds help in soothing pain, reducing inflammation, and speeding up healing? How often should Aloe Vera gel be applied to the burned area for effective treatment? I also found that some people use coconut oil as a natural moisturizer for burns. How does coconut oil help in preventing infection, promoting skin regeneration, and keeping the skin hydrated after a scald injury? Is there a specific type of coconut oil that works best, or is any cold-pressed coconut oil effective? Additionally, I read about using turmeric as a natural remedy for scalds. Since turmeric has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, would making a turmeric paste and applying it to the affected area help in healing scalds faster? What is the right way to apply turmeric paste, and should it be combined with any other ingredients like milk or honey for better effectiveness? I also want to know about herbal oils such as Lavender oil and Chamomile oil, which are sometimes used to treat scalds. How do these oils work in reducing pain, preventing infection, and speeding up the healing process for burns caused by hot liquids or steam? Lastly, I want to understand whether there are any side effects or precautions when using natural remedies for scalds. Are there any remedies that should be avoided, such as butter or greasy ointments, which might trap heat and worsen the injury? Also, is it safe to treat a severe scald with home remedies, or should a doctor’s advice always be sought for burns involving large areas or blisters? If anyone has experience with treating scalds using natural remedies, I would love to hear your experience. What worked best for you, and how long did it take for the burn to heal? Also, do you have any additional remedies or tips that helped speed up the healing process? Looking forward to your insights!
