Will Black Stain After Thumb Cauterization Disappear With Healing?

AgNO3 sticks were used to cauterize thumb injury. I was told to not get it wet for 2 days, so this morning I tried to remove the black stain with salt solution with little or no success. Is there anything else that can be done? Will the stain disappear by being absorbed during the healing process?
