Burns, External
"Years ago I used this on a burn and it healed within a week.  Now I have a ruptured boil (skin infection) that has left a 2&quot;x2&quot; area without skin.  The area was still weeping and infected after 10 days of 2 antibiotics so I asked my doctor for Silvadene because of my previous experience.  It&#039;s been 10 days since I began using Silvadene and ALL infection is now gone, just as I knew it would be.  The wound is a little bit smaller than it was and I&#039;ll continue to use Silvadene until new skin has grown over and closed the wound."
