Your Description suggests that you have developed acute allergic contact dermatitis secondary to the application of mealaglow cream. You are required to wash of the the cream with wet cotton, take antiallergic medicines orally, and apply lacto-calamine lotion to the skin. consult your family doctor if relief doesnot come with in a couple of hours. Take care
