General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a an allergic reaction. I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application such as Betametasone cream.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
