Hello,
I have gone through your complaints and it seems to be an allergic reaction.
I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet Cetirizine twice daily and apply cortisone cream to the affected area twice daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
