Hi,
You seem to have irritant contact dermatitis due to hair dye. Kindly consult the dermatologist to have perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
I would suggest...
- short course of antibiotic
- tappering course of steroids
- Antihistaminics
- apply combined cream of antibiotic and steroid
- dettol bath
- avoid soap bath
- avoid hair dye
I hope this would help you..
Thanks.
