Hi,
It may be contact allergic dermatitis most probably. However, consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. Tacrolimus oint may be applied. Take antihistaminics and if needed, oral steroid in tapering dose. Avoid the contact with suspected allergens.
Hope this helps.
