Brief Answer:
Allergic reaction

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed an allergic reaction.
I treat such cases with a mild steroid cream like cortisone twice daily for a week.
It is safe and effective and usually available over the counter.
You can try this.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis.
Waiting for your response.
Thank you.
