Burn Injuries in Arizona

The American Burn Association noted that each year, close to half a million people are admitted to emergency rooms across the country for treatment of burn injuries. Although burn injury victims boast a fairly high survival rate, they are usually subjected to excruciating pain, lifelong disabilities, disfiguring wounds, and psychological trauma.   

The effects of a serious burn injury can be long-lasting and even life-threatening, with many causing secondary problems like amputations, chronic pain, and infections.
