How to wash the wound in the eye area so that it heals nicely?
Hi I have a burning and oozing wound on the edge of the eye because I rubbed too much when removing makeup. Please advise whether to heal quickly I have to wash this wound and moisturize with cream or rather overdry. I want them not to be alive and heal quickly

To @Rana and a bruise under the eye: Universal advice on how to proceed can be found in the pinned answer. For personalized advice, you should go to your primary care doctor, who will be able to inspect the wound. I enclose a video that may be helpful:

Unfortunately, without a photo of the wound, I can only give very general and universal advice. Important in this situation is the fact whether the wound is very close to the eyelid. First of all, it is necessary to decontaminate the wound using a sterile gauze pad and an antiseptic. Please do not use hydrogen peroxide, spirit or rivanol for this purpose. It is worth choosing modern, effective and safe preparations, e.g. Octenisept (https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/87829/octenisept-aerozol-aerozol/apteki#internetowe) or Prontosan. After cleaning the wound, you can apply a gel that accelerates wound healing, e.g. Octenilin gel (https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/55566/octenilin-zel-na-rany-zel/apteki#internetowe), Sutriheal Forte 5% (https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/97372/sutriheal-forte-5-masc/apteki#internetowe) or Prontosan gel (https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/64517/prontosan-wound-gel-zel/apteki#internetowe). Due to the close proximity to the eyeball, I recommend caution in the application and avoiding getting these preparations into the eye. Gels can be applied daily. Do not overdry the wounds - it is a myth that "aired" wounds heal faster. To avoid problems with healing and the formation of scabs, and as a result scars, the wound should be healed "wet", i.e. disinfected and moisturized with the above-mentioned preparations.
