The Three Most Common Causes of Full Thickness Burns

The most common cause of full thickness burns is heat. This can include contact with a flame or very hot objects. Examples are roofing tar or hot asphalt.

Scalding is also a common cause of full-thickness burns. Often times from hot water, steam or hot liquids. Showers and bath tubs are common causes of scalding burns. Care should be taken not to turn hot water heaters to a too high setting. While these injuries can happen to anyone they are most common with children and elderly. These injuries are foreseeable and preventable.

The third common cause of full thickness burns is electricity. On example is lightening. Others include faulty electrical cords, damaged outlets, and damaged wires. Workers that work in the vicinity of "hot" power lines, such as cable television cable installers have serious full thickness burns due to coming in contact with power lines.
