Hi,
From history it seems that he might be having chemical reaction of hair removal and produced dermatitis.
Apply triple action cream locally.
At present it is likely that there might be having bacterial infection.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
