Hello,
You have sensitive skin, putting an excessive amount of Amrutanjan / tiger balm has caused reaction. Since Tri O Bloc Cream is working to lighten your skin, continue to use it. You can also use it. You can apply natural bleaching agents like lemon juice, turmeric in sugar/water, apply it on the tanned area, keep it for sometime and then remove it. Do it regularly. It is effective but may take time.
Avoid exposure to sunlight. For better and faster action you can apply any good quality Vitamin E depigmentation cream or ointment to lighten your skin and remove pigmentation in the area affected. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a dermatologist for the best effects. Your treating dermatologist may recommend laser treatment, it is very effective.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
