Brief Answer:
Is this around the belt area?

Detailed Answer:
HI,

I have reviewed the image and your information fully. This seems suggestive of a contact allergy. Is this area around where the belt sits? I will suggest that you reflect and stop using any new additions like belts or other cosmetic products around this area. For now, apply low dose hydrocortisone cream. Report the progress to me within 72hours. On another note, do you have this anywhere else on your body?

I wish you well. Stay well and keep me posted.

I have stopped using my belt. I also have been taking a anti alergy medicine. It is in my lower waist region. Around the belt area. So far in 2 days, less itching. Seems better. Let you know ymeo
