Brief Answer:
Caladryl + ebast..

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The picture wasn't very clear. But I don't see any major abnormalities on the surface except for few patches of pigmentation. You may be suffering with localized eczema /dermatitis either due to contact or irritation or allergy.

I would suggest applying caladryl lotion on the affected area and tab ebast 10mg at night. It should soothe the area and reduce the itchiness. If symptoms worsen, you should have the area checked by a dermatologist. Further course of treatment with steriod applicant and medication can be decided based on clinical evaluation.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.

Regards
