Hello and welcome,

I understand the issue. The swelling may be due to the trauma caused by scratching. Please do not repeatedly clean it now. Use mild soap [ the one that does not irritate ] and luke warm water to clean it twice a day and pat it dry immediately. If the irritation persists triple ointment containing combination of antifungal, bacterial and steroids are very effective in providing fast relief. Other measures are cold compresses to ease the pain and soreness.
Hope this helped.
Thanks for using HCM.
Have a good day.
