I accidentally spilled hot water on a sensitive area and now there's a red mark and it's bleeding a bit. I'm really worried and not sure what to do. Are there any home remedies you'd recommend to help it heal? Also, is there anything specific I should avoid doing?

I'm getting kinda worried because ever since I started using Depwhite and Xtralite cream at night, my skin's been super dry. Plus, when I apply Acnemoist cream in the morning, I notice a mild burning sensation. Do you have any idea how long these issues might last?
