I've made a mistake and kept some Dettol hygiene liquidthe green kindin my mouth. Now, I can't feel my tongue and it's really sore. My tongue's skin is even peeling off. I'm freaking out a bit and when I went to Sahara Hospital, they told me it'll be fine by morning. I'm still really worried though, can you tell me what I should do? Is there anything else I need to watch out for?

I've ended up taking 8 ibuprofen tablets in just 35 minutes because my hip is really sore and I'm having a hard time walking.
