    was it done in a salon, and if so have you contacted them?

    Did the salon perform a patch test 48hrs prior to waxing?

    I'd always be wary when using a groupon type site when it comes to waxing.

    OP keep the area clean + don't use any body lotions for a while. Something like savlon should help. Antihistamine are good too!

    If I were you I'd contact the salon. After-effects like this indicate that somewhere along the lines something went wrong. If the wax was too hot you would have felt it burn when it was applied. However if you weren't patch tested it may be an allergy.
