Hello dear
Understand your concern
Garlic produce irritant dermatitis.
As a treating doctor, I will give following advice:
Wash burn area with clean water and mild antiseptic.
Apply ointment of antibiotic and steroids: to prevent the infection and reduce inflammation.
You can also take oral or ointment of antihistaminics depend on irritation and itching.
Avoid perfumed soap and direct exposure to sunlight.
Lesion will be healed in 4-6 days.
So consult the dermatologist and take proper prescribed drugs.
Hope this may help you
