question: My wife injected an infected area on my leg with  tea tree oil. Now my foot/ankle and leg is swollen. How can I get this tea tree oil out of my leg?   I elevate my foot at nighttime and it returns to the original size. During the day while walking around its swells up. .My foot itches. Will activated charcoal  bind to it and take it out of my leg and body or  am I stuck with this problem for the rest of my life? Is there something that I can take to counteract this tea tree oil?
