I accidentally dropped some Dettol on my forehead today, and it caused a burn that left a dark mark. It doesnt hurt or feel swollen, but it looks pretty bad. Ive been getting treatment for pimples, but this just happened, and my doctor is out of town. Can you suggest how long it might take to heal?
You can apply an antibiotic ointment like Silverex cream twice a day to prevent infection. Additionally, you can use a scar removal gel like Contractubex to help reduce the appearance of the dark mark. It usually takes about 1-2 weeks for minor burns to heal, but the dark mark may take longer to fade. Make sure to protect the area from sun exposure to prevent further darkening of the mark.
