I have got rashes from benzoyl peroxide 10% i have stopped its use what can i do to treat these red swallon rashes plz help doctor?

The benzoyl : Peroxide 10% might be too strong for you and you may be reacting to it. Stop using it and go see your doctor for an alternative medicine . You might need a lower percentage.Depends on skin type, a gel may be better over a cream or lotion.
