I'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?
