Time: Unfortunately, time and being kind to your skin is best treatment. Keep the area clean, out of sun, and try petroleum jelly on it. Vitamin E oil is also soothing.

Call: Call a Dermatologist for an immediate appointment. Inappropriate self treatment created your problem. Please seek professional help rather than looking for yet another, and possibly inappropriate, self treatment cure.
