Medical Doctor(s)...help?!
Question: Medical Doctor(s)!.!.!.help!?
On Sunday, I accidentally burned myself with and iron (it barely even nipped the skin, but it made the middle of it peel) I immediately put some aloe on it and covered it with a bandaid!. The next day, I had to go to swim practice, and of course, the bandaid came off (b/c it wasn't waterproof)!. I left swim practice with the scab being a dark brownish color with light green cast!.
Next day!.!.!.I put neosporin on it and a bandaid, but right before swim practice, peeled the bandaid off!. After I left swim practice, there was even more of a greenish cast going through it and it was swollen!.
Today, I wake up (with a bandaid on it), it's sore, so I decide to peel the bandaid off and the skin from where it had healed busted and there was some green goo left on the bandaid and the rest underneath what was healed skin dried up, but it's still green!.
I know this is an infection, but how do I treat this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Stay out of the pool until it scabs over!. Keep it clean and apply neosporin 2-3 times a day!. If it turns red or stays green, go to the Dr!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Antibiotics from a doctor!.
Edit: It's repeatedly dipping an open wound in chlorine that's got it infected in the first place!. To do it once was stupid, to continue doing it is even more so!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
