Popis: Cryogenic burns are rare. They are therapeutic challenge to physicians in the absence any clear accepted management guidelines. We present a patient who was referred to our National Burns Unit having sustained a full thickness burn after the application of a brand name sub-zero producing aerosol spray. These are advocated as a method of rapid analgesia for muscular strain. To our knowledge this is the first reported case in the English literature.
