Most of the burn patients even after undergoing reconstruction surgery go deeper and deeper into the bog of depression. I think this is quite obvious for a patient whose physical condition turns out incondite after passing through this incident, which is normally not less than an incubus.
However, I would still call this study quite significant as it once again impels us to rethink that how important mental healing is for such patients whose life turns out to be quite horrible. Therefore, I think that special attention should be given for bringing out these burn patients from the bog of depression otherwise; their lives would take no time in turning into a nightmare.
Giving way to the same idea lead author of this study Bret Thombs says, ‘The finding may not be surprising, but it may be a valuable tool that could spur burn centers to devote more resources to mental healing.’
