Hello

Garlic is an irritable substance and overnight use of it is not recommended specially if it is not mixed with something to compensate its harmful effects,
Plus to some people it cause inflammation
Burns
Allergy

Suggestion:

If i were your treating physician i would recommend you:

(1) Topical application of polyfax ointment.
(2) Protect the area from direct sunlight.
(3)Take anti Histamin for example loratidine 10mg once daily before you sleep.
(4) Don't rub the are
(5) Wash is with medicated soap like Oleatum r at least DOVE cream.
(6) Don't Try such things at home about which you are not sure what they will do to you or at least some body else haven't tried it and got good result.
