Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to dermatitis.
For that you can apply hydrocortisone ointment locally. Take tablet loratidine for itching.
Maintain proper hygiene. You can also apply aloe Vera gel locally.
In case of fever you can take tablet acetaminophen. In case of other symptoms like swelling, breathing difficulty you may require detailed medical examination and physician's opinion.
Keep your self hydrated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
