Hi,

Actually after garlic application you have developed irritant contact dermatitis. This had lead to burning patches. As it is irritation due to garlic, first of all,you stop to apply garlic. Take steroid tab like methyle prednesolone in tappering dose for few weeks along with antihistaminics like levocetirizine.
Mild steroid combined with gentamycine like eumosone G cream might improve the condition. After clearance of irritation,if there is black color, you may apply kojic acid containing gel at night. I hope this would help you.

Thanks.
