What is the classification of a first degree burn?
There are 4 classifications of burns: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd and 4th degree. They are easily recognized by certain traits:First Degree Burn - relatively mild; usually a sunburn. The area appears red but not usually blistered. It is painful and sometimes itchy at the same time. The epidermis is the only thing that is damaged by a sunburn (the epidermis is the topmost layer of human skin).Second Degree Burn - more severe than a first degree burn and considerably more painful. A second degree burn damages the epidermis and damages the underlying layer of skin or the dermis. It causes redness, pain, swelling and blisters. Sometimes the skin is white or charred. The person may experience shock. The skin may began to peel.3rd Degree Burn - the second most damaging type of burn is a 3rd degree burn. This destroys the epidermis, damages the dermis, and hypodermis which is the layer beneath the dermis. It chars the skin, it may whiten it and it causes blood vessels to coagulate. Often this burn becomes numb but some people may feel extreme pain. Typically 3rd degree burns result in severe scarring.Fourth Degree Burn - the most damaging. They affect all skin layers, muscle, tendons and bone. These burns are not painful due to extensive nerve damage. This type of burn always requires skin grafting. It always results in permanent injury and may require extensive rehabilitation. They are life-threatening and sometimes require amputation due to the severe nature of the injury. Typically electrical shock causes this type of injury.

An electric shock can cause burns. Because the electric current travels through the body, often the true extent of burns cannot be seen, only the entry and exit points appear burned.
