Hi Dear,
As per your query you daughter have symptoms of contact dermatitis which is mainly due to allergic reaction to one of the ingredients. Need not to worry.
- First and foremost solution is avoid contact with allergen, which can be done by wearing gloves while doing such kind of work.
- Keep area clean and dry.
- Apply coconut oil to avoid itching and cortisone to avoid further spread.
Visit dermatologist once, and go for allergic test and start treatment accordingly.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry
