Most doctors recommend waiting two weeks to a month before submerging your hair in chlorinated water. Personally, I recommend two weeks before entering a pool, and another two weeks after that before submerging your hair.

You need to see a doctor first with a proper examination.  Your doctor will give you a recommendation based on your examination.

Time, my friend.  The steroids will probably help the most.  Skip the witch hazel.  For some patients the redness lasts months - it just depends on the patient's skin type.  It will go away with time, though.Good Luck!
