How to get rid of infected burns???
15/f, yes I selfharm and this was intended but it was my first time burning as I usually just cut. Anyways I don't want anyone to pay attention to how I selfharm. I burned 3 spots about an inch long on each with a curling iron and then I think they've gotten infected. They're like a pink colour with red around them and very swollen. Going to a doctor is not an option so I need things I can do to help here. I've applied polysporin on it for a couple days now and I'm not sure if it's helping. I've had the burns for almost a week.. Help?

Maybe give some free advice about: Injuries?
The only way not to self harm is to understand that everything you do has Cause and Effect and if by torching yourself, you feel better, then you have really taken a big step backward. It does not matter even if you burn your whole body, you are responsible, and the pain that comes along with burns, you are the only one who will deal with that pain, not parents or anyone else. But if you look at the brighter side of life, you can study that fire and learn to control it and that is called "pyrokinesis" which I think is better because in-order to control the fire, you have to be in-touch with your soul and that's what you need. Try it!

Burns are very serious. When someone gets a burn the burn does not always stop when the heat source is removed. The burn can continue to burn deeper and deeper. This is the problem with burns and why when someone gets a serious burn they MUST be treated by a doctor and sometimes at a specialized burn center.
You have escalated your self-harm to the point where you could end up in the hospital in very serious condition. I beg you to either go to a hospital ER and have this latest injury treated properly or pick up a phone and dial 911. You do not need parental permission, ever, to call 911 for help.
You need professional help to correct the problems you suffer from. If you feel a current doctor is not helping find a new one but get professional help before it is too late. Suicide is never an answer it is the wrong solution.
Everyone is put on this earth for a reason. Who knows what you have to contribute. You just may be the person to find the answer to one of the world’s greatest health problems. Get some help for yourself and live your life the way it was meant to be lived.
