How Can Inflammation And Itching On He Hands And Chest Be Treated?

I was down with chicken pox starting from 4th July. I was almost recovered but in order to cleanse all my scars, I applied grinded paste of aloe vera plant leaf on my hand, face, chest and neck but I got a inflammation and itching sensation on my hand, chest and neck but not on my face. And now the entire of my hand, chest and neck is covered with small small red coloured goose bumps like rashes with continuous itching may have happened due to some reaction. Please suggest what to do. Thanks Vivek

Hi,

Start taking antihistamines and apply local steroid ointment to the allergic rash. If it doesn't improve then you may need to take steroid shots after doctor's consultation.
