Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic.

I would keep a possibility of Allergic contact dermatitis to hair removal cream, which you used recently.

If I was the treating doctor I would have suggested you to used moderately potent topical steroid e.g fluticasone propionate cream twice daily for a few day.

An OTC antihistamine e.g cetrizine 10mg once daily would help you symptomatically in providing itch relief.
