Used acne med w/salicylic acid on face & it burned me really bad. it is oozing clear liquid & is raw and hurts a lot. what should i put on it?

Remove thoroughly: Make sure it is completely removed and treat as a burn, with cool compresses and Neosporin. Increase your fluids. Take Tylenol (acetaminophen) for pain. As it is on your face, have it reviewed by your MD and protect from any sun. All the best.
