Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You seem to have developed an irritant reaction to vinegar. Redness and itching are signs of that. I suggest you to use a moisturizer frequently. In addition I suggest you to apply an OTC topical steroid, e.g. Hydrocortisone acetate cream (cortisone cream). You may take an oral antihistamine, e.g. Tab. Cetrizine for symptomatic relief from itching.

Regards.

Let me know if you need any more assistance.
