Hi ,

Welcome to healthcaremagic.com
I have read your query in detail and can well understand your concern.

Your symptoms could be due to photodermatitis.

Skin allergy may be due to many things like chemicals, dyes, sunlight, insect bite, perfumes or may be idiopathic. Use a medicated gentle cleansing lotion on your skin. Wear cotton clothes. Avoid allergants like pets/ dust etc.


Do not scrub this area and use cetaphil cleansing lotion for facewash for next 1 week.

Stop using sudocrem on your face.

You can take tab levocetrizine 5mg twice daily.
Apply clindamycin gel twice daily.

Apply sunscreen every 3 hours in the day time and avoid stepping out in the sun.

Hope this helps.

you can revert back if you have any further query.
