It looks very bad and I have a wedding to attend in 2 weeks. I have no clue what to do. It is such that cannot be hidden either. I use a soap by seba med. And I'm applying clindamycin on rashes.

Hi,

As a first like management you can apply low potency steroid ointment like Betamethasone for symptomatic relief. You can also take antihistamines like Pheneramine for itching. Generally the symptoms will subside in couple of days. If the symptoms persist, you can consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query.
