Hello,
It seems like you have developed allergic dermatitis due to bleaching agent. I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g Cetrizine tablet. In addition, I suggest you to apply a moderately potent topical steroid like Mometasone furoate or Triamcinolone acetonide cream on the affected area.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
