How long has it been? generally I will get bumps for a day and then they go away but you could be allergic to the wax.

You could rub benadryl cream on it or vaseline to soothe it. Hope it gets better (:

Sometimes that happens to me too , and a way to prevent that is not to put water or wet or wash that certain area you got waxed for a few hours since it causes irritation . And when i forget not to wet that area i just use aloe vera . Hope this helps !

If you applied makeup within the 24 hours after your waxing it can cause breakouts, the hot wax opens your pores and makes it easier for dirt and oil to get into it
