	**Electrical cord bite
	**Usually arc burns that may involve the orbicularis oris muscle, the oropharynx, and damage to the developing dentition
	*Extremities
	**Kissing burn: occurs at the flexor creases of the extremities due to current flowing across opposing skin surfaces as the extremity is forced into flexion by an electric shock

	**Usually a child who bites an electrical cord
	**Significant risk of delayed bleeding from the labial artery exists when the eschar separates
	**occurs 3 to 14 days post injury
