Can tea tree oil cause a chemical burn?Posted by: Alan in Contact Dermatitis, tags: Burn, Cause, Chemical, treeI’m having a pretty bad reaction to it. My skin is red and some spots look waxy white and it does feel rough. I’ve been putting polysporin on it for the past 2 days but it’s getting worse. Its about 3 inchs long and a inch wide. By description it sounds like a burn. I’m really not sure if the oil can really give a burn like this though? Would this also fit a severe contact dermatitis reaction? It was pure essential oil that I spilled and wiped off myself with tissue. Thanks

Postinflammatory Hypopigmentation Nair Chemical Burn?Posted by: Alan in Contact Dermatitis, tags: Burn, Chemical, Hypopigmentation, Nair, PostinflammatoryI had irritant contact dermatitis from a Nair chmical burn on the face and it has caused postinflammatory hypopigmentation “It presents as poorly defined whitening of the skin which is irregular in outline. Often the loss of pigment is partial rather than complete. ” Is there anything I can use or do to help get back the pigment in the skin e.g. creams, treatments at dermatologist, prescription drugs etc… I’m so worried that it might be scarred and no longer able to re pigment I’ve had this for some time first turned out to be a red mark but then loss color in the skin. What are treatments that dermatologists do to fix this and the prices because I don’t have much money and it probably won’t be covered under OHIP. |
