2018-06-04 06:28:08
Today I shaved my pubic hairs with razor and water... After that I washed my hands with water. I forgot to wash hands with handwash or soap.. After that I unknowingly rubbed my eyes with my hand. Immediately my eyes became red and watery.There is no redness now. Will anything happen to my eye.? What should I do?? I am in a great worry.please help.
