Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Based on the description, it appears that you have chemicals present in garlic induced skin inflammatory injuries. Kindly do the following to overcome it. 1. Clean the area with cold water and mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily. 2. Apply Neomycin cream over the lesions as thin layer following drying. 3. Take analgesic medication Tablet. Ibuprofen twice daily after food. 4. Prevent constipation by consuming fibre rich food and using laxatives like Isapgol husk powder. 5. Apply Lignocaine cream for local anaesthetic effects when necessary. Never use substances like garlic for such conditions as it will cause more harm than good. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
