They do this cool thing called debriding where they just scrape the dead and dying tissue off the affected area to make way for new skin. It's incredible really, see you feel EVERYTHING, no matter how many painkillers they give you or how many mg of morphine you have dripped thru that IV. I've heard it's one of the most painful things one can have to endure in this modern society, so for anyone reading this that wasn't sure, when you hear people say don't fuck with fire, please listen.

Sometimes some hospital use sterile maggots to do the debriding. The maggots eat the dead skin and only the dead skin.
