Burn injuries are of serious concern worldwide not only because of the physical impact but also because of severe mental and emotional distress and reduced quality of life. The usual management comprises topical and systemic medications, and supportive care; however, conventional therapy may be expensive and insufficient for many cases. Thus, we describe herein a unique case in which a low-level laser was used concomitantly with the conventional approach for the management of head and neck burn wounds and could improve the patient's clinical condition within a short period.
Keywords: Burns; explosions; low-level light therapy.
