I used nair on underarms. upon removal it stung so i figured it was just irritated due to scratching earlier. however about a hour after having it off it continued to sting and when i checked it, i see my skin is broken and inflamed. what should i do?

Antibiotic: You may apply triple antibiotic cream to the raw area. The medication is available over the counter. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
