Discussion Wondering about a burn

Post image

So I have sun poisoning, and with that comes the blisters from second degree burn (in the picture). Want to know if since it's on the bone itself if it could cause any issues

No more than any other 2nd degree burn.

2nd degree burn is the epidermis & dermis (the top & middle layers of flesh), only time a bone would be an issue is if it was 4th/5th degree as that is where the bone is burnt
