General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

It may be due to an allergic reaction.

As of now, you can take antihistamines like Pheniramine for symptomatic relief. You have to stop using meth as it can cause a further reaction.

If symptoms persist you can consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
