Summarize the following:
Burns commonly cause pain, which can worsen in the days after your burn starts to heal. However, it should start to improve after the initial spike in pain, if you provide proper care, change your dressings as directed, and care for your body. If your pain continues to worsen or suddenly increases, you may have an infection. Get your burn examined by a doctor to get a proper diagnosis. Discoloration can occur by itself or along with swelling. You might notice the redness around the burn is getting darker or pink skin has turned red. In some cases, an infected burn may take on a purplish color, similar to a bruise. Although minor changes in color may occur as part of the healing process, greenish or purplish discolorations, especially if accompanied by pain and swelling, should be checked out by your doctor to rule out infection. Swelling often occurs after a burn, regardless of whether or not it’s infected. However, an infection can cause the swelling to worsen. If you have an infection, you’ll also likely notice other symptoms in addition to swelling. Pus or discharge may develop as your body tries to heal the wound. The discharge or pus may be clear or green. No matter the color, any discharge or pus is a sign you need medical treatment. The pus or discharge can come from broken skin around the burn, or it might come from broken blisters. You may be able to smell the burn itself, or you might notice that your bandages are very smelly. This can be a sign of infection, so you’ll want to get the burn checked by your doctor. Additionally, you might notice a smelly discharge. Fever is a common sign of infection, including after a burn. Call your doctor if your temperature rises to 38 °C (100 °F) or higher. A fever by itself may not mean your burn is infected. However, it’s best to see your doctor just in case. Sometimes a burn may not show typical signs of infection. However, if it’s not healing or starts to look worse, then you should see your doctor. They can check the wound to see if you need additional treatments. Do not try to break or pop a blister. This will not help it heal faster. Instead, you’ll increase your risk of an infection. These symptoms can indicate sepsis or Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), which can occur after a burn. These symptoms may occur alongside other symptoms of infection, especially fever. Sepsis and TSS are both emergency situations that can be life threatening, so visit a doctor immediately. Sepsis is a common risk after you experience a burn. It can quickly worsen and enter your bloodstream, where it can damage your organs. With immediate medical treatment, however, you can recover.

summary: Notice if your pain level around the burn increases. Check the burn for discoloration, ranging from deep purple to red. Watch for swelling around the burn. Look for pus or liquid oozing from the burn. Notice if your burn starts to smell bad. Check to see if you have a fever. Notice if the burn or blister worsens or fails to improve after 2 weeks. Get immediate care for vomiting and dizziness.

For best results, use sidewalk chalk instead of chalkboard chalk. It is much more pigmented. The more chalk you use, the more paint you will have. Use two different colors to create a new color! Place the bag with the chalk inside of it on top of a hard surface, such as a wooden board or a sidewalk. Hit the chalk with a hammer several times until it turns fine and powdery.  Take this time to create more colors. Use one color of chalk per bag. If you are using a thin bag, such as a sandwich bag, place a paper towel under it, and another one on top of it. This will keep the bag from ripping. Make sure that the jar is big enough to hold at least 1 cup (240 milliliters) of water. If you smashed multiple bags of chalk to create more colors, use a separate jar for each color. Use If you one piece of chalk, use ½ (120 milliliters) of water. If you used two pieces of chalk, use 1 cup (240 milliliters) of water. Stir the paint well until the chalk dissolves. If you need to close the jar tightly and shake it to help mix the water and chalk.  If you smashed additional bags of chalk, you will need another ½ to 1 cup (120 to 240 milliliters) of water for each batch. You can thicken the paint by adding 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of white glue to it. Keep in mind that this will make the paint permanent. Apply the paint using a paintbrush. When you are done using the paint, close the jar tightly. If the paint starts to turn too thick, add some water to it to thin it out again. You should be able to dilute it 5 to 10 times before it becomes too thin to use.  The chalk may settle in the water. If that happens, stir it back up again. If you added glue to the chalk, use it on paper—unless you want it to be permanent!
summary: Place 1 to 2 pieces of colored chalk inside a resealable plastic bag. Smash the chalk into a powder with a hammer. Pour the powder into a jar. Stir in ½ to 1 cup (120 to 240 milliliters) water into the powdered chalk. Use the paint on a sidewalk or driveway.
