In 2004 after the 3 Hurricanes, Charley, Frances and Jeanne, my husband was burned in accident at work. He had 3rd degree burns on the backs of both hands, a spot about the size of a softball on his stomach and a spot about the size of a 50 cent piece on his left groin area. he had to wear pressure gloves on his hands after he came out of the hospital. He had to wear those gloves for a solid year. The only time he could take them off was when he took a bath. He decided not to wear a pressure girdle so the scar is visible on his stomach but he doesn't mind it and it doesn't bother me. After the year of wearing the pressure gloves his hands were completely healed and the skin was as smooth as a baby's bottom. You could not tell they had been burned. But I wish that the skin spray gun had been available when he was injured. He would have recovered much sooner than he did if it had been used on him.
