X76: Intentional self-harm by smoke, fire and flames

Intentional self-harm by smoke, fire, and flames describes a group of conditions resulting from an individual deliberately causing harm to themselves via these heat sources. These methods can lead to a multitude of physical injuries, such as burns, smoke inhalation injuries, and related complications. Burns may vary in severity, possibly affecting layers of skin, muscle, and even bone. Symptoms of burns can include pain, redness, swelling, blisters, and, in severe cases, charred or blackened skin. Smoke inhalation can lead to coughing, trouble breathing, and potentially serious lung damage. Individuals intentionally harming themselves this way may also experience psychological distress. These forms of self-harm are not transmissible between individuals as they stem from personal mental health struggles. It's crucial to understand that these actions are often linked to mental health conditions such as depression or anxiety disorders, which may trigger the individual's self-harming behaviors.
