Burn injuries can be among the most severe injuries one can sustain, and sadly they often result in catastrophic damage to the victim's body. Severe burns can result in substantial tissue, muscle, and nerve damage, and may even leave the individual paralyzed or in a coma. These injuries are all too common in the United States, with 2.4 million Americans suffering some type of burn injury every year. 650,000 of these cases require some form of medical treatment, 75,000 result in hospitalization, and 12,000 result in death for the victim. In addition, 1 million people will suffer partial or full disability due to their burn injuries. These injuries are caused in a myriad of ways, from house or building fires, to recreational accidents (such as fireworks or campfire mishaps), to chemical burns, auto accidents and negligence on the part of another is often to blame for the injuries occurring in the first place.
