Abstract
The findings of the present study suggested that burn survivors encountered such challenges as “unexpected suffering,” “culture-related stigma,” “perceived social rejection,” and “constructing a new identity.” Limited and inappropriate coping strategies may hinder the effective rehabilitation of burn survivors. In addition, burns must be understood in the social-cultural context to develop effective coping strategies for reintegration into society.
