Treating simple wounds in Massivecraft

Burns
First degree (Superficial burns) = Skin will be red, dry and may swell.
Second degree (Partial thickness) = Skin will be red, likely swell, and has blisters that might open and release clear fluid.
Third degree (Full thickness) = May destroy any underlying tissue, such as fat, bones, nerves and muscles. The skin might become brown or black, generally looking charred, whilst tissues may appear white.

Treatment: Remove the source of the burning. Cool the burn with copious amounts of water, and then cover once pain is relieved with a sterile dressing. Don't use creams, butter or oils, as they can trap heat and increase infection risk. Don't use antiseptics. Treat the individual for shock. Ensure the patient is neither too hot nor too cold, as burns generally stop the bodies ability to thermoregulate.

Chemical burns
Brush off the skin using cloth or paper, not using your hand. Once most of the chemical is removed, flush it with running water, do not place in a bowel of water etc. Continue to flush the area affected with water for 10 to 15 minutes. The longer the safer.

Shock
Recognition: Early phases include a rapid pulse, pale cold and clammy skin, and sweating. The next phase would be blueing of the lips or cyanosis, weakness and dizziness, nausea and vomiting, thirst, rapid shallow breathing, and a weak thready pulse. Later phases can be an absence of pulse from the wrist, restlesssness, aggressivenes, yawning and gasping for air, unconsciousness, or later and largely more fatal, cardiac arrest (heart attack).

Types: Hypovolaemic shock (loss of blood from circulatory system), cardiogenic shock (blood not pumped effectively), anaphylactic shock (allergic reaction).

Treatment: Maintaining blood flow through the bodies core is essential. This includes the thorax and the head. To do this, lie the patient flat on the floor, raise their legs 30cm or 6 inches plus, off of the ground and place something underneath to keep them there. Make sure they are kept warm, breathing and reassured. Treatment of the cause is paramount also. When unconscious, their airway takes priority over any other treatment. You should aim to place them in the recovery position, or one that similarly allows them easy breath.
