Description

A burn is an injury to skin, or other tissues, caused by heat, cold, electricity, chemicals, friction, or ultraviolet radiation. Most burns are due to heat from hot liquids, solids, or fire. Burns occur mainly in the home or the workplace. In the home, risks are associated with domestic kitchens, including stoves, flames, and hot liquids. In the workplace, risks are associated with fire and chemical and electric burns. Alcoholism and smoking are other risk factors. Burns can also occur as a result of self-harm or violence between people (assault).

शरीर के किसी एक या अनेक अंगों का जलना एक प्रकार की दुर्घटना है जो उष्मा, विद्युत, रसायन, प्रकाश, विकिरण या घर्षण आदि से हो सकती है। बहुत ठण्डी चीजों के सम्पर्क में आने से भी शरीर "जल" सकता है जिसे "शीत-जलन" कहते हैं। विश्व में प्रति वर्ष सहस्त्रों व्यक्ति दाह से मरते हैं और इससे बहुत अधिक संख्या में अपंग होकर समाज के भार बन जाते हैं। दाह रोग प्राय: असाध्य नहीं होता।
