View allI tried using Salactin paint on my ankle to get rid of some hard skin, but after just a day, the skin turned black and red. It looks like it might be burnt. What should I do to treat this and help it heal?
Salactin paint contains salicylic acid, which can help soften and remove hard skin. However, it can also cause irritation, especially if used incorrectly or on sensitive skin. The black and red discoloration you've described suggests a chemical burn or severe irritation. To promote healing and reduce discomfort, follow these steps: Immediate Care 1. Stop using Salactin paint: Discontinue use immediately to prevent further irritation. 2. Wash the area: Gently wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water to remove any remaining salicylic acid. 3. Apply a topical cream: Use a topical cream or gel containing aloe vera, hydrocortisone (1%), or calamine to help soothe and calm the skin.
