need advice from a burn unit or ER nurse

A few days ago i burned my finger - it blistered up and after a day or two the blister broke. Ok - now there is an area around the area where the blister broke that is a tan color and very waxy feeling - that part is sore - the rest is not. I am wondering if that dead skin should be removed - should I go to the doctor? or just leave it to heal naturally.I am putting bacitracin on it to keep it from getting infected. Thanks in advance to anyione for their professional opinion.
