Hello. This is the most common problem females face due to the sindhoor. We call it contact dermatitis if I am not wrong in coming to the diagnosis. Its because of the chemical contents of the product she is using. Its better to contact a skin specialist who will examine, confirm the diagnosis and start on few anti allergic treatments.
