Question

I used a zalim lotion about 45 minutes ago, and now my skin is burning. Is this normal? What should I do to relieve the burning?

If you are experiencing burning sensation on your skin after using a lotion, it is possible that you may be having an allergic reaction or irritation to one of the ingredients in the lotion. I recommend washing the affected area with mild soap and water to remove the lotion. You can apply a soothing cream like calamine lotion or aloe vera gel to help with the burning sensation. If the burning sensation persists or worsens, you can take an over-the-counter antihistamine like cetirizine 10mg once daily for relief.
