Greetings! Please see a qualified deramtologist near you. A mild TCS based cream with antifungal may be suitable for application twice daily for 2 weeks. Keep the area cool / some icing would help in reducing burning sensation - make sure you dry it - dab dry - after icing the area. Dont worry about the pigmentation until the skin has healed completely. Later - skin lightening creams may be used. Hope this helps. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal. Bengaluru.
