Definitions

• the present invention relates to an antipyrotic and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, it relates to a cream that is excellent for treating skin burn (also referred to as "burn") by adding, in a fixed ratio, compositions excellent for treating burn wounds to usual cream or ointment for skin application, and a method of manufacturing the same.
• a cream that is excellent for treating skin burn also referred to as "burn”
• Burn is one of those damages from wrong usage. Burn can be as slight as burn by solar heat, and it can be so frightening as to lead to death when it is serious.
• Burn is classified into first degree, second degree, third degree, and fourth degree and this classification is important in taking a measure for treatment.
• the first degree burn is instantly generated when taking strong solar rays in the beach or when contacting exploding gases or hot liquids instantaneously and the affected region may be accompanied by pain and redness and may be healed without trace after a few days without special treatment.
• the second degree burn also is accompanied by redness and blisters are formed in the affected region, which appears to be somewhat swollen compared to the surrounding tissues. It is accompanied by serious pain and can leave scars after complete healing.
• the third degree bum is the case where all the layers of skin including epidermis and dermis are damaged, and the skin is dried and turned into white or black as if it is bumed and loses the sense.
• the fourth degree bum is a term that started to be used recently and is the case where hypodermic muscles, tendons, nerves, and skeleton tissues are damaged, along with all the skin layers.
• the degree of bum is classified into first, second, third, and fourth, according to the area and depth of bum, and the causes of bum can include those by current, chemicals, heat, etc.
• the causes of bum can include those by current, chemicals, heat, etc.
• anyone can get bumed slightly or seriously due to carelessness or unexpected accidents.
• the first treatment is the most important. If it is not treated properly or treated wrong in emergency, it can leave scars and the treatment period can be lengthened and other skin diseases can be accompanied.
• the gauze-typed antipyrotic isolates the affected region from outside air and this may delay recovery. Also, when the bum is suppurative, secretions and suppurative meterials can be attached to the gauze, and it can give pain to the patient when the gauze is substituted. Furthermore, the conventional antipyrotic are not excellent in their effects. In other words, these conventional antipyrotic did not reach a satisfactory level in terms of treatment of bums, and in particular, it has a long way before an easy treatment for slight bum such as first and second degree bum is developed.
• the present inventor found a natural substance having remarkable results in treatment of bum, and completed this invention by applying the substance to the cream for treating bum.

• Pine is bifoliate, where two leaves form a couple. It is also called Isoosong, Ichimsong (denoting two-needle pine), Iripsong, etc., and all these names represent pine is bifoliate.
• Scientific term of pine is Pinus densiflora Siebold et Zuccarini.
• the initial shape is circular or elliptical and is about 5 mm in length and is light violet in color.
• This is a collection of a multitude of female flowers, which is called a cone.
• This is what is called a pine cone in the present invention.
• Mature pine cones consist of various scaly leaves, and in a scaly leaf, two ovules are in contact, which later on become a seed with two wings. Young cones in spring before pollination are called storbile or conelet in English, instead of cones.
• Scaly leaves of the pine cone is in contact with the axis of the pine cone helically, its end is fat and big, its exposed part is near the diamond shape, and there is a protrusion in its center.
