This reasonably common and we see this quiet often in our practice redness occurring after bathing or swimming.It is the chlorine or chemicals in water leading to redness.We try to avoid medication but if necessary anti allergy and decongestant drops are useful.Olopat drops and decongestant like mezol can be used twice a day.
