You seem to have developed an allergic skin disease. You should avoid applying any kind of skin irritants like dettol, spirit over it. Avoid wearing any king of artificial jewellery over the neck.
You might need to apply a topical steroid cream over the affected area twice a day for few days. Take some oral antihistamines along. See a nearby dermatologist if the condition tends to persist despite this therapy. You might need a course of oral steroids.
Hope it helps,
