It sounds like it is healing normally. You could always use a little Benedryl cream to soothe the skin if it feels like it was burned. I have had inflamed sweat glands as well, though it did not develop the look of a burn. It is normal for areas that have swelled to peel after it reduces to normal size. I'll bet the red look will disappear also. But since you have seen a doctor, your best bet would be to return if you have some real concerns.
