Hello,
It looks like your skin is sensitive and you are developing some type of allergy.
Take antihistamines like Levocetirizine, once daily for 5 days. You can apply hydrocortisone cream in the affected area. You may need to take a course of amoxicillin-500mg, to get better.
Do not share your Toiletries with anyone & avoid using chemical products for facial or body use.
Use Aloe Vera based moisturizers or Calamine lotion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Nupur K, General & Family Physician
