Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello dear,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.
It look like allergy reaction and not a infection.
I advice you should first clean it with sterile normal saline followed by application of clobetasol ointment over the wound. This will prevent the allergic reaction.
You can also do frequent cleaning and washing followed by dressing with dettol, betadine followed by polysporin applications.
Please avoid using sunglasses for the time your wound become clear.
You can search for the sunglasses which has material consisting of non allergic material. This will avoid your future allergic reaction.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM.
