Hi,
As per the history you are giving, you have probably got contact allergy to some content in that chap stick. My advise is stop using that particular brand immediately. Another thing you should consider with these complaints is herpes labialis, usually it is presided with feverish feeling or headache. If you had any such symptom, contact your dermatologist immediately.
I hope this will be helpful to you.
