Hi,

As first-line management, you can apply low potency steroid creams like betamethasone for symptomatic relief.

If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. A short course of antibiotics can be taken preferably Moxclav.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
