Hi. Well savlon is never applied undiluted. Anyways there is redness all over nose. The first thing is to clean it with simple water to remove any left savlon. Do not apply anything at the moment. she may need prescription medicines and since she is a small child , I would advise you to get a consultation with a Dermatologist. Any added things tried at home can worsen the problem. A good thing is that the small children heal very fast.
