Hi I Started Developing A Rash Behind My Ears And
Dermatitis worsened with topical irritants
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.
You seemed to have some sort of dermatitis at the start and you made it worse with witch XXXXXXX alcohol, tea tree soap and repeated washing.
I suggest you to use a bland moisturizer e.g petrolatum (Aquaphor lotion), twice or thrice daily and over it I suggest you to put a moderately potent topical steroid e.g either mometasone furoate 0.1% cream or triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% cream, twice daily. In addition I suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g cetirizine 10mg tablet once a day for a few days for itching.
Take care. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Use a gentle cleanser e.g Dove soap or Cetaphil gentle cleansing lotion. Avoid frequent washing. Moisturize frequently. Moderately potent topical steroids are prescription medications. You may contact your general practitioner for a prescription regarding those. However, you may apply cortisone cream (hydrocortisone 1%) for the time being. It is a mild steroid but it is available OTC. Take care
