Burns due to undiluted savlon..

I applied raw savlon dabbed in cotton on my front neck. I went to sleep but woke up after four hours due to the extreme burning sensation... Next day I woke up and saw that there were burnt marks on my skin and the region had swollen up from inside...
Save me
It hurts

It sounds like you have a chemical burn.  If you're in extreme pain, please see a doctor immediately.  Here is a previous thread on the same subject with advice from a doctor: https://www.medhelp.org/posts/Dermatology/Undiluted-Savlon-Burns/show/1445231
