Lemon is usually used in hair oils and shampoos. But directly applying it may irritate the scalp skin. Do a patch test before applying it.

I've cut myself on my stomach with a compass and now it's been about 5 or 6 days, but the pain just keeps getting worse. I don't want to tell anyone 'cause I'm the one who did it. Is there anything I can do to make the pain less intense, and do you know how long it'll take for the scars to go away?
