Scratching

Anyone have any idea how to stop a scratch from scarring? DD (17 months)was scratched just below her eye at toddlers this morning. It doesn't look too bad, but a scratch received in nearly the same place three months ago is still showing, and I'm worried it will actually be a scar. Someone reassure me and tell me that it will fade! I've got arnica and germolene in the house, but not sure if i should put it so near her eye in case she rubs it in?
Thankyou.

Hiya
Massage is good for any scaring

Try gentle circular rubbing in of any cream, just making sure it is well rubbed in so she cant rub it INTO her eye
