A 10-year-old girl has been left with excruciating burns after trying a TikTok trend. The schoolgirl, who has been left needing surgery for the wound, was having a sleepover at a friend's house when they decided to try the trend which had been circulating on the social media platform.

As part of the trend, participants spray deodorant on their hand until it feels ice cold. While the girl's friend only sprayed the can for a few seconds, the girl left it on for approximately 10 seconds.

Her mum is now speaking out after describing how much pain her child has suffered.
