First of all i want to make it clear that it is not necessary that an allergic reaction develop at the first exposure of any substance..sometimes it develops after a repetitive exposure...so it is a good possibility that u have developed an allergic reaction to the garlic paste as garlic is a known allergen..i suggest you to stop the garlic and consult a dermatologist, nowadays acne can be cured easily with treatment then why to go for these uncertain(garlic) remedies...thanks
