Brief Answer:
Use steroid cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Please upload a photo of the lesion so that I am better able to help.

Please also let me know which chemical caused it. Chemicals lead to inflammation.
I treat such cases with topical steroid cream like Mometasone. It gives good results within a week.
You can try this in consultation with your doctor.

Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
