Brief Answer:
Medicines recommended against allergy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM, to post your question.
I saw carefully the picture you uploaded and read your query.

It looks like an allergic reaction indeed.

The first step to cure an allergy is to avoid the allergen. Try to think and look carefully if you have had contact with any new medicine, food, detergent, shampoo, cream, ect, recently, that might have caused the allergy. Avoid it, otherwise the allergy will keep coming, even if you take the right medicines against it.

The next step is to take an antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg, Loratadine 10mg, ect... once/day, for 10 days, or until the lesions go away.

If worse or not better consider doing a visit to your local doctor, so he can check you up and do necessary labs.

Hope the answer is clear. Please let me know if you have other questions about this issue, or otherwise kindly close and rate the question.

Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
