Brief Answer:
It is due to dry skin, you need to apply moisturizer regularly
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thank you for your query.
I can understand your concern regarding your skin problem. I have seen the uploaded image.
You need not to worry as there is nothing to worry much.
You probably have dermatitis due to dry skin and it is very common condition in men.
You need to apply moisturizer (vaseline) three times a day. Apply hydrocortisone cream over the moisturizer for faster relief.
Continue to apply it for 10 days.
You need to keep the skin clean. Wear cotton and loose cloths.
Avoid any cosmetics (perfumes/talcum powder) for 15 days.
You can take tablet fexofinadine, if there is itching. This is a prescription drug. Please take it under the supervision of your doctor.
I hope I answered your query.
Let me know if you have any question. Follow up me after 10 days.
