Burn injuries are a major problem in the health of people all around the globe. Infection in burn wounds is a leading cause of death for many patients who have been burned. Because of its germicidal qualities and influence on oxygen metabolism and other effects, ozonated oils have been well-received in treating burns and complex burns.
Burns can be tissue damage caused by heat, radiation, or chemical contact. Minor medical issues or life-threatening emergencies can lead to burns. Treatment of burns will depend on the extent of the injury. Sunburns and minor scalds are usually treated at home. You should seek immediate medical attention for severe or extensive burns. People may require treatment in a specialized burn center and long-term follow-up care.

Conclusion
The most innovative, practical, non-invasive, and cost-effective method of using ozone therapy in the last 130 years is the Ozonated Oil. It has shown interesting therapeutic results. Ozone has biological effects that include antimicrobial activity (antibacterial. antiviral, and antifungal), antalgic effect, and enhanced O2 metabolism.
