Hello. Thank you for writing to us

I have gone through your query and I have noted down your concern.

I suggest you to use a moderately potent topical steroid e.g triamcinolone acetionide 0.1% cream Or mometasone furoate 0.1% cream, twice daily for a few days. I also suggest you to take a tablet of cetrizine 10 mg once daily, in evening, for a few days.
