What to do if your face gets burned red by electric welding

A red face from welding is a specific manifestation of welding burns, which is usually caused by the welder's failure to operate safely.

Electric welding burns refer to the phenomenon that when welding work is carried out, the welding safety operating procedures are not strictly followed, resulting in the skin of the operator being burned, or the body being burned by the welding arc (a continuous dazzling light, sometimes with the appearance of a glow arc, formed when the circuit is disconnected. That is, the light emitted by the arc is very strong and bluish-purple.) radiation.

2. Consequences of Electric Welding Burns

In mild cases, the skin burned by radiation will turn red. The pain of mild burns will gradually disappear with the use of relevant treatment drugs or without use. There may be slight peeling after healing.

In severe cases, the skin burned by radiation will turn dark red. If the skin fails to improve and recover after using relevant treatment drugs or not, burn edema will occur and the burned area will peel off in large quantities, leaving permanent burn scars after healing.

5. In case of skin burns caused by electric welding, it is best to first gently apply aloe vera to the affected area, then go to the hospital's dermatology department for examination, and then receive professional treatment. Skin burns caused by electric welding must not be exposed to water. It is best to disinfect it with alcohol first, and then use ointment for treatment to avoid infection. The wound must be kept clean and not exposed to water.
