Hello,
A soothing aloe vera gel might be all you need (wash your hands before applying it!).
However, if this doesn't help, a couple of days of mild steroid cream, best in combination with an anti-bacterial ingredient are usually very effective.
I suggest you to visit your doctor for proper checkup and prescription of cream if needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
