Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcare magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.
It could be irritant contact dermatitis to
the veet.

I would suggest you to
- Stop application of veet
-Give ice compress over the area
- Wash the area with Cetaphil . I would start a thin layer of vaseline or calamine lotion.
- I would also start tablet allegra and an analgesic ( ibuprofen) to reduce pain and itching.

Do not worry.
Visit a physician. He/she can examine you and correlate clinically.
Hope this helps.
Post any other query.
