Hello,

It appears from your description that you are having allergic skin reaction as a result of using hair removal cream.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Cleanse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Neomycin with Hydrocortisone cream over the affected area.
3. Take antihistaminic medication tablet Levocetirizine once a day.
4. Avoid friction in the area by wearing loose fitting undergarments preferably made of cotton.
5. Use medicated soaps for taking bath till the lesions subside completely.
6.     Maintain good personal hygiene.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S
