    Go to the hospital? Those are REALLY serious burns. What has happened is that he's burnt off a layer of skin and that skin is the external barrier to infection. With that gone he is really susceptible to getting an infection. Go to the ER and get this looked after by a professional. Especially if he is diabetic.
