Bumps, Redness, Burning After Applying Undiluted Savlon Wash Onto Nose Piercing Area. Remedy?
Hi, i put undiluted savlon wash onto my nose piercing and it is now a bit red and tiny little bumps have been formed around the piercing , and the area generally feels as if it is burning a wee bit. what can i do to sooth the area? i just got my nose pierced but i think the pain is all coming from the savlon because i forgot to mix it with water

Hi,
From history it seems that this might be due to using undiluted savlon produced irritation and soreness.
Clean the site with warm water.
Apply antibiotic cream locally for 2-3 days.
Ok and take care.
