Applying Dettol on tip of Nose
I had a cut above the lips area and just before the nostrils. I immediately cleaned the wound with a cotton soaked in Dettol. Later I realised I shouldn't use Dettol as the part is very much close to nasal area. Should I be worried about inhaling Dettol and is it bad for health. After two hours, I rinsed my nose with cold water will that be sufficient or should I follow anything
