Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction The potential allergen can be related to food,detergents or other potential causes.
I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily.
I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
