<b>Rose</b> ~ the burn is on my my face injury where I fell 6 weeks ago...my face had not been healing properly and I was going to go back to my  doctor but &quot;just hadn&#39;t got around to it&quot;  LOL  anyway, Monday or Tues. this week I mowed and weed-eated my parents yard, I thought by wearing a big flopping hat I was protecting my face from the sun, but while I was doing it knew I was getting too much sun on it but it had to be done...anyway, the part of my face that hadn&#39;t  healed yet from the fall really started to  hurt and throb and when it didn&#39;t let up I went to the Dr. on Fri.  He said I had burnt the unhealed part of my face and it was infected.  He prescribed a homemade paste of zinc oxide and pure aloe vera gel mixed together and to slather it on my face.  I wasn&#39;t burnt anywhere else, just on the injured part...He didn&#39;t want to put anything strong on my face for fear it would discolor my skin.  If my face isn&#39;t healed in 6 weeks my Dr. is going to send me to a plastic surgeon.<br />It is doing better, I am to call my Dr. tomorrow and let him know how i am.
