I used compound dithranol ointment 1.15% on face yesterday. The skin turned brown in colour. I don't feel any burning sensation. What should I do?

Please do not apply it on face as it may cause irritation. Please consult your dermatologist immediately as you have developed irritation and darkening of skin. Unless treated immediately, chances of pigmentation or rashes are more.
