They don’t have any blisters associated with them and typically heal in a few days without treatment. They are often associated with a mild sun burn. Second-Degree Burn These are also red and painful, but they also have blisters associated with them. Fluid will leak from the blisters if pressure is applied to them. Third-Degree Burn These are a far more serious type of burn where the dermis and epidermis have been completely burned away. The site appears charred or white.
