Last night, my son was injured and suffered minor burns on his skin.He was using the malem bedwetting alarm which we purchased for him.The alarm has a moisture detection part which i clipped on the outside of his underwear and the alarm part which i placed on his t-shirt top near his neck.I put him to sleep and he came running into my room holding the t-shirt away from his body.He is (b)(6) and was unable to remove the alarm on his own.I asked him why and he screamed in pain.I tried removing the alarm, but the process burnt my fingers.The alarm was hot like coal.I pulled off his t-shirt and checked on him.He had a bright red burn mark like a blister on his skin.The alarm wrapped up in the t-shirt made a hole in the shirt and then there was gray powder that spilled out from it.That was possibly the batteries spilling out from the product.I have treated my son at the pediatricians office.
