Just took Elder to a meeting at his school to get ready for the upcoming year. Feeling very excited for him right now 😃 Far less exciting is after I drop him off at home I'm going to one of those urgent care clinics for my face. It's been weeping for a week due to the ti tree oil incident. I've been cleaning and dressing the wound several times a day and wearing a mask over top to hold it all together/conceal it/keep it clean, but I want some advice about whether I should be continuing with a "wet healing" regimen or attempting to dry it out to stop the weeping.
