ILOILO City – A carpenter sustained burns. He got accidentally electrocuted yesterday at the public market of Guimbal, Iloilo.
Ryan Augis of Barangay Nahapay, Guimbal was taken to the Rep. Pedro G. Trono Memorial Hospital in Guimbal for third degree burns on the body.
Third degree burns, or full-thickness burns, are a type of burn that destroys the skin and may damage the underlying tissue.
These burns are a serious injury requiring immediate medical help. Unlike less severe burns, which can be very painful, full-thickness burns may not hurt. This is because the burn may damage nerve endings in the skin responsible for sensing pain.
The accidental electrocution of Augis happened at around 10 a.m. Augis was installing a metal bracket./PN
