What To Do For Burns Caused By Applying Expired Bengay For Tightness In Left Thigh And Calf?
Hi my left thigh and calf were feeling tight and so I wanted to put on some bengay, the one in my bag had exploded so I got one from the medicine cabinet and put it on but when it got to the hot part it burns really bad and it hasn't gone away and its been like 15 min. I looked at the bottle and it was expired by a while so what can I do to make the burn go away... I already wiped it off

it seems you have got an allergic reaction. Apply some moderate potency steroid cream over it (mometasone/betamethasone).
