Discharge report
This is the first time I've been asked to translate anything related to the hospitals and medicine, and I'm only doing it because I felt I couldn't say no.
Anyway, here goes:
It's a hospital discharge report and the patient was admitted with 2nd-degree burns.
EXPLORACIÓN FÍSICA
Presenta quemaduras de 2º grado intermedio en un 9% SCT, localizadas en ambas piernas, circulares. No signos ni síntomas de síndrome compartimental.
No sensibilidad discriminativa en algunas zonas.
Piernas edematosas.
Talla: (height) Weight (kilos)
PROCEDIMIENTOS
- ****Flictenectomías****
- Cura con Silvederma oclusiva cada 24h.
- Administración dosis VAT
Then comes EVOLUCIÓN CLÍNICA
I can't find the word in Spanish, let alone English. I've tried 'Flick...', 'Phlyc...' and the minutes are ticking by.
Spanish from Spain (though there are bits in Catalan) into US English.
I would really appreciate your help. Thank you.

Note from asker:
| This looks good. Thank you! I had to send the translation in last night but I've just sent the client a note in case they've got time to correct it. It's partly their fault for giving me such short time to do the translation! In the end I used 'drainage of blisters', although I was on the verge of using 'excision'. |

Phlyctenectomies
It seems this is a procedure to cut small blisters caused by burns.

Not sure. There is the term "cutting of the phlytena" used, e.g.,

| Thank you. It seems feasible but I tried 'phlyctenectomies' before posting my question and I didn't find anything. Are you sure it's right? |
