With this type of wound dressing. Will it work on a second degree burn that is supposed to be kept moist?

No, alginate is for moderate to heavy exudating wounds. I personally use Bactigras alot on 2nd degree burns although without proper assessment it is difficult to say if that is what you exactly need. There for this is not medical advice. If you would like, I do offer online wound consults you can book here thewoundconsultant.com/ola/services/basic-wound

Can you shower while you’re wearing an alginate dressing?

You do not want to get this dressing wet. If you wear a shower proof cover dressing, it would be ok. I always suggest dressing changes after having a shower . Remove dressing before

Can sodium alginate be used?

Most alginate dressings are calcium alginate, kaltostat has a calcium-sodium alginate dressing
