Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
it can be side effect of chemo but also some other cause may be condeired. You should just apply some local antihistaminic cream or mild corticosteroid cream. It there is no some other symptoms such as breathing difficulty or chest pain then you dont have to be concerned.
Wish you good health. Regards
