It might be due to some sort of fungal infection. For treatment you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl after an expert opinion along with avil or cetrizine for itching on hands and scalp. You can use combiflam or ibugesic-plus for swelling and inflammation. You can use betnovate-c or clobit-gm cream for local application. Don't worry it will be fine.
