Inflammation

2017-01-11 14:52:12
I am taking hormone control pills since a long time which caused pigmentation in my upper and under lip area. I checked the internet and found that hydroquinone creams reduce the pigmentation. But after using the cream for just 2 days, the area above and under my lips became reddish, very itchy and skin started peeling off. Please suggest what should i do? What should i put on the affected area to reduce the inflammation? How long will it take to go away?
