During a flight, I accidentally put a dettol bottle in my jeans pocket. I felt a burning sensation in flight and threw the bottle. On landing, I saw the part where I felt sensations and it seems to have been burnt, there's a big scar. What should I do? Will the scar go off? (i applied neosporin though)

Do not worry can continue the same neosporin cream for few days more, after a few days for healthy scar formation moisturize it well (coconut oil is also good) and use a anti scar gel for a month or two ,hope it helps.
