Core Tip Pediatric burns remain a significant cause of morbidity in developing countries, with children under five most affected. This prospective study highlights the predominantly preventable nature of such injuries, with scalds being the most common cause. Beyond physical trauma, burns impose a profound psychosocial and economic burden on families - ranging from emotional distress and behavioral changes in both patients and siblings, to substantial loss of workdays for parents. Early intervention and standardized management improve outcomes. Public awareness, education on prevention, and improved burn care infrastructure are essential to reduce incidence, disability, and long-term financial impact on affected families and the healthcare system.
