Suggest Treatment For Oozing From Chin Area Due To An Allergic Reaction

I have an allergic reaction after using Just for Men hair color for my beard. I'm experienced itching which led to me shaving off my beard and washing the affected area. After shaving I've noticed swelling and leaking around my chin area. Is there anything I can do?

Hello,

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I would like to make suggestions for you as follows:

1. I would suggest you to apply topical corticosteroids like triamcinolone acetonide for 1 week over affected area.

2. If oozing is puslike, I would suggest you to apply an antibiotic like mupirocin in addition to above.

Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Wish you the best of the health ahead.

Thank you & Regards.
