Hi,
It seems that this might be due to allergic reaction to hair removal cream.
Apply calamine lotion or triple action cream locally after proper washing with plane water.
Take some antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl.
Within a day or two it will be alright.
Now before using any cream, go for sensitivity test.
Ok and take care.
