India being a developing country has high incidence of burns which is about seven millions.

Materials and Methods: 40 patients divided two groups (each groups consisting 20 patients) one group used silver sulfadiazine and other groups used nano silver colloid agent tropically as antimicrobial agent. Results of the both the groups are compared using statistical analysis Results: Nano silver colloid are more efficient in treatment of pediatric Second degree Burn associated with less pain.
