Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to a contact dermatitis.
I suggest using antihistamines such Cetirizine 10 mg daily.
I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application at the rash area.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
