how to cure bleach burn on face - #19093

Parthiv

I am super stressed right now because I accidentally got bleach on my face while trying to clean. Like, I thought I was being careful, but clearly, that didn’t work out. It was just a small drop, but now I have this really red, irritated patch of skin that’s burning and looks horrible. I’ve washed my face multiple times and put some aloe on it, but I’m not sure how to cure bleach burn on face. There’s this constant tingling sensation, and I feel like I'm about to break out in a rash. I read online that people say cold compresses might help, or that I should apply honey. Ughh, I don't really know what to do, do I need to see a doc? A friend told me that applying petroleum jelly can be soothing too, but is that safe to do for something like this? My skin's pretty sensitive, and I just can't afford to make it worse. I really want to learn how to cure bleach burn on face effectively before it gets infected or something! If anyone has experience with this kind of thing or can point me to what works, I would really appreciate it. I'm freaking out a little over how to cure bleach burn on face, any advice would help!
